BELGRADE - Our people and our state have a future in Kosovo, if we want the future to be sustainable, we must be united, said the Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija Marko Djuric.

"If we want the future to be sustainable, certain and strong we must all be united," said Djuric from Mitrovica, which hosts the event "Bozur Fest" organized by the Office for Kosovo and Metohija.

He said we should all often go to Kosovo, to convince ourselves of the natural beauty, historical and cultural heritage to which we can be proud of.

"The situation is difficult, there is no doubt about it, but there's no doubt about that we will, with heart and all capacities, knowledge and energy, struggle to survive and stay here, because we know what we are fighting for, we know that here is ours and that we are on our own and that it should stay like that," Djuric said.

He said that in Mitrovica 12,000 students are studying, who are mostly from Kosovo and Metohija.
