Kosovo Minister of Local Government Administration and coordinator of the management team for the establishment of the Association / Community of Serb municipalities Ljubomir Maric said that the incidents that began last year (after reaching agreement on the Community in Brussels) are receiving new forms. He added that non-Albanians, Serbs in the first place, and everything which has characteristics of Serbian, become the target of extremism which is increasingly present.

Minister of Government Administration in Kosovo, Ljubomir Maric urged Serbs in Kosovo to verify whether they were enrolled in the electoral register to exercise their right to vote in the upcoming elections for the Serbian Parliament on 24 April.

According to him, citizens will show by turning up at the polls that they want to be part of what was agreed, and that was the Community/Association of Serb municipalities.

Kosovo Minister of Local Government Administration Ljubomir Maric said that the Serbs would rather present their own candidate for President of Kosovo, than support another candidate, stressing that the election of the President was never the subject of the coalition agreement. Maric said that no one spoke with Serb representatives about support for the presidential candidate, and responding to the question of whether they do have a candidate, he said: "We want the Community of Serb municipalities (ZSO)."

The upcoming round of talks in Brussels should result in the statute on the establishment of A/CSM. Ljubomir Maric coordinator of the team for establishing the Association/ Community of Serb Municipalities (A/CSM) said that there is no substitute for dialogue. "The two sides pledged to implement agreements resulting from the dialogue and so far we have seen that the Serbian government has implemented everything that was agreed.

Kosovo Minister of Local Government administration Ljubomir Maric and USAID official in Kosovo Randall Olson will participate in the conference dedicated to the analysis of revenues in the municipalities in Kosovo. The aim of this conference is to present a document which contains the insight into the analysis of trends of revenue collection in municipalities in Kosovo in the period from 2010 to 2014, including the possibility of improving this process.

Maric told reporters in Belgrade, after a meeting of the Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija Marko Djuric with the political representatives of the Serbs from Kosovo, that in the coming period, he expects the decision and that he sees no reason why this should not be done in the next two to three weeks.

Coordinator of the Management Team for the formation of the Community of Serbian municipalities, Ljubomir Maric says that the management team continues with the formation of the ZSO after the Constitutional Court of Kosovo brought the decision.

One of the two Serbian ministers in the government of Kosovo, Ljubomir Maric told Tanjug that the management team continues with activities which were temporarily suspended by interim measure of the Constitutional Court of Kosovo.

Kosovo Minister of Local Government Administration, Ljubomir Maric, told RTS that the recent attacks on Serbs in Kosovo are a message that they will not be peaceful and that they are not welcome. He stressed that it is required urgent involvement of the police from the Serbian community in these areas.

Kosovo Minister for Local Self- Government Ljubomir Maric said that the Serbs in Kosovo were intimidated and afraid that the riots in Pristina might spill over into areas with Serbian majority.

He told Vecernje Novosti that the events in Pristina were internal conflict within the Albanian community, but that one should respond promptly to these events, because that could lead, as he said, to destabilization of the situation in Kosovo.

Until there is an on-going chaos on the streets of Pristina, because Albanian opposition parties launched battle against the establishment of ZSO by tear gas, pepper-spray and Molotov cocktails, representatives of Serbs in the province fear that unrest could spill over into areas where Serbs live. Therefore, they invite people to be cautious, and also urge all relevant institutions, including international, to stop the violence.
