Mayors of Serb-majority municipalities held a joint meeting in Mitrovica and warned that conditions for the participation of Serbs in the 8 June elections have not yet been met. Mayors Goran Rakic (Mitrovica North), Dragan Jablanovic (Leposavic/Leposaviq), Stevan Vulovic (Zubin Potok), Dragan Nikolic (Partesh/Partes), Gradimir Mikic (Ranilug/Ranillug), and Srecko Spasic (Kllokot/Klokot), said the basic principles of democracy and European values are still being violated. “The position of the Central Elections Commission, which sets new regulations on the number of mandates based on election results, represents a clear example of the violation of the Law on General Elections in Kosovo and it indirectly reduces the rights of the Serb population and other non-Albanian ethnicities in Kosovo,” says a press release issued after their meeting. However, based on its sources, this daily reports that Serbs will participate in elections, despite their objections to the logo of the Kosovo state. “Serbs from the north fear that they will not gain more than 10 seats after the 8 June elections, in the next legislature of Kosovo, and they are therefore making threats,” said one source.
