“As to the information regarding an incident involving Romanian EULEX mission members at the FYROM border, the Head of Mission has been informed by the Romanian National Point of Contact about the incident. The Head of Mission took immediate action and informed the Romanian Head of Liaison Office in Pristina and his higher authorities in Brussels about the matter. EULEX takes these reports extremely seriously and HoM has asked for an immediate and thorough investigation into the matter. EULEX has a rigid code of conduct in place and will take all necessary actions as appropriate. EULEX would like to underline that the Romanian authorities are dealing with the incident as a matter of urgency, especially as it took place outside Kosovo involving Romanian mission members on leave.”
