At the NATO Parliamentary Assembly's Democracy and Security Committee, during the consideration of the report "Women, Peace and Security: UNSC Resolution 1325 in 2025", delegation member Natasa Jovanovic spoke about the increasingly frequent cases of harassment of Serbian women in Kosovo-Metohija.
She highlighted the situation on the ground, which is characterized by ethnically motivated sexual harassment as an instrument of persecution. "In the previous period, in the north of Kosovo-Metohija, an increase has been recorded of cases of sexual harassment of women and girls of Serbian nationality by persons of Albanian nationality, which has caused serious concern among the population and civil society organizations," Jovanovic informed the Committee.
This abuse is part of a broader campaign of systemic discrimination and ethnic repression under the Kurti regime. Almost all of them are female, from minors, Serbian girls, to women of a more advanced age. Specifically, in the period from October 2024 to June 2025 alone, more than thirty incidents of sexual harassment have been documented. These include incidents such as sexist insults, false offers of transportation, stalking, teasing in public places and other forms of intimidating behaviour that create an atmosphere of fear, feelings of humiliation and psychological insecurity in victims of Serbian nationality. Thus, in an interview with a journalist from Radio Free Europe, one of the young victims said: "They are teasing me in Serbian, in Albanian, they are harassing me with non-verbal communication, they are sending me kisses, they are showing me to get into their car... I cannot do anything to them, I cannot even tell my father, because I do not know what his reaction will be." "This is just one of the testimonies and all these incidents further worsen the position of Serbian women in Kosovo-Metohija," Jovanovic pointed out.
