The brother of Albania’s Prime Minister was arrested in Belgrade on Tuesday night, accused of starting the trouble that caused the abandonment of the Euro 2016 qualifier between Serbia and Albania.

Serbian state television RTS reported cited the Serbian Interior Ministry to say that Olsi Rama controlled a drone from his seat in an executive box in the stadium, carrying a ‘Greater Albania’ flag which flew over the pitch, triggering clashes between the teams as some of the 20,000 home fans tried to assault Albanian players.

Relations between Tirana and Belgrade have been fragile over Kosovo, a former Serbian province, and the ethnic Albanian minority in southern Serbia, who often demand more autonomy.

Some in Belgrade see Tirana’s interest as part of a plan aimed at creating a ‘Greater Albania’ that would unite Albanian communities in Albania, Kosovo, Montenegro, Macedonia and southern Serbia. Kosovo’s independence has been recognised by more than 100 countries, including the United States and most EU member states. Kosovo, the former Serbian province comprised mainly of Albanians, proclaimed its unilateral independence in February 2008.
