Mayors of Serb municipalities south of the Ibar River supported their colleagues in the north, saying that Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija are united in their attempts to defend their right to exist in the centuries old home areas, KIM Radio reports.
They remain also united in intent to voice in a peaceful and democratic manner disagreement and revolt over difficult situation that Pristina’s trade blockade brought them in.
“Although we will not undertake the same measures due to different circumstances we live in, we would together fight discrimination and violation of human rights of our people caused by the introduction of 100 percent taxes on the goods from central Serbia, thus in the most direct way jeopardizing our right to remain in Kosovo and Metohija,” Serb majors stressed.
The signatories of the statement include Bratislav Nikolic, Strpce Mayor, Srdjan Popovic, Gracanica Mayor, Vladica Aritonovic, Ranilug Mayor, Svetislav Ivanovic, Novo Brdo Mayor, Bozidar Dejanovic, Klokot Mayor and Dragan Petkovic, Partes Mayor.
