Serbs from northern Kosovo have the most faith in the KFOR Mission, which was thrown into sharp relief after a recent escalation in the Banjska village, the Demostat research and publication center reported on Oct. 18 citing focus group results.

According to Demostat, the Serb community perceives KFOR members as "professional" and "independent," unlike some other international factors, which are often seen as "pro-Albanian."

Some residents of northern Kosovo municipalities even cite KFOR as "the only actor" they trust, which stems from losing faith in the Serbian government and in the Serb List, which is allied with Belgrade, according to the findings, while they never expected much from Pristina.

Some of the Serbs living in northern Kosovo believe the actions of an armed group that ended in the death of a Kosovo police officer and three Serbs "caused enormous damage to the Serb community."
