According to this, the Serbian patriarch wishes to go to Kosovo without bodyguards.
Pristina previously banned the head of the Serbian Orthodox Church from traveling to the Patriarchate of Pec on December 25.
As Kosovo Online wrote at the time, an e-mail from the government of Kosovo which banned the visit of the patriarch at the time set conditions before the head of the Serbian Orthodox Church in order for a visit to be approved, and the main was that he should publicly condemn the barricades set up by protesting Serbs in the north of Kosovo, as well as "criminal structures in north."
