Tensions escalated after the government of Kosovo, a former Serb province, banned banks and other financial institutions in Serb-populated areas from using the dinar in local transactions as of February 1 and imposed the use of the euro. The dinar was widely used in Serb-dominated areas, especially in northern Kosovo, to pay pensions and salaries in Serb-run institutions.
