After the extraordinary sessions, the meetings of the municipalities of the Serbian majority in Northern Kosovo, at which they discussed the current political and security situation, the leaders of Kosovo Mitrovica, Leposavic, Zubin Potok and Zvecana resigned. The reason is, as stated by the mayor of Kosovo Mitrovica, Goran Rakic, the Pristina’s policy is discriminatory. The courts in these places also stopped working.
Loposavsky municipality adopted a declaration on the termination of all institutional relations with the temporary institutions of Pristina, RTS reports.
Explaining his resignation, Goran Rakic said that the reason for this is the continuing institutional repression carried out by Pristina’s Kosovo institutions, as well as the threat to the rights of Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija.
The director of the Kosovo and Metohija Affairs Office, Marko Djurić, has previously confirmed that all the mayors of the four Serbian municipalities will resign.
“Neither the municipal assembly nor any other bodies will function until the discriminatory measures and the cessation of the violation of human rights,” Djurić said earlier.
The court in Kosovo Mitrovica, Zvecan and Zubin Potok stopped working today at 9 am in solidarity with the citizens who organize protest actions after the introduction of Pristina’s measures against the Serbs and the violation of their rights in Kosovo and Metohija.
