Minister for Labor and Social Welfare Aleksandar Vulin stated yesterday that Serbian government and the Ministry of Labor are working on reducing number of socially vulnerable in Kosovo and Metohija, and stressed that such policy will be pursued in order to preserve Serbian population in the southern province.
“Without an active engagement of the state of Serbia and the Ministry of Labor, life in Kosovo and Metohija, when it comes to Serbs, simply wouldn’t be possible. Majority of Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija live and are managing to survive in Kosovo thanks to social policy of the Serbian government and this Ministry,” Vulin said in Štrpce/Shtërpcë following the meeting of the Presidency of the Union of Employees in the Social Welfare of Serbia and directors of the centers for social welfare from the territory of the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Meothija.
The visit of the Union to Kosovo is an indicator that its members and the Ministry of Labor will continue to care about Kosovo Serbs, explained Vulin.
