While commending Kosovo Prime Minister Bajram Rexhepi for urging an end to the violence, Guehenno criticised the provisional government for its initial, ambivalent response.Guehenno noted that while the riots erupted spontaneously, they were soon taken over by "organised elements" seeking to drive Kosovo Serbs out of the province.
On je pohvalio kosovskog premijera Bajrama Redžepija zbog poziva na okončanje nasilja, kritikujući istovremeno privremenu vladu za prvobitnu, ambivalentu reakciju. Iako su nemiri izbili spontano, ukazao je Gueno, ubrzo su ih preuzeli «organizovani elementi» trudeći se da proteraju kosovske Srbe iz pokrajine.
