It's a quarter of a century since Kosovo emerged from a brutal war, one which pitted local ethnic Albanians against Serbs. Twenty-five years on, the government in Pristina is pressing ahead with reforms that could reinforce its separation from Serbia. They include banning the use of Serb dinars and curbing the import of things like Serb medicines. Pristina says the moves are needed to curb illegality and tax-evasion. But they鈥檝e brought widespread complaints from local Serbs who feel victimised. Is the government justified in claiming there鈥檚 a rising risk of violence, or are the restrictions themselves making this more likely?
