Beograd i kosovski Srbi zatim su objavili da je prisustvo kosovskih carinika na sjevernim prijelazima neprihvatljivo, a lokalni Srbi su u znak protesta postavili na prijelazima barikade.
Belgrade and the Kosovo Serbs then announced the presence of Kosovo customs officers at the northern crossings was unacceptable and local Serbs set up barricades at the crossings in protest.
