Macut: Local elections in Kosovo are of great importance for the Serbs living there

Prime Minister of Serbia, Prof. Dr. Djuro Macut, stated that the local elections in Kosovo are of enormous importance for the Serbian people living there and called on citizens to turn out in large numbers, expressing his expectation that the will of the people will be respected.

“Today’s local elections in Kosovo and Metohija are of tremendous importance for our people who live there, but also for all of us,” Macut wrote on Instagram.

He expressed his expectation that the will of the citizens, expressed in a free and democratic manner, will be respected.

“For perhaps the first time in many years, there is a real opportunity for the will of the Serbs living in Kosovo and Metohija to be verified — for them finally to establish their autonomy, in accordance with the previously concluded Brussels Agreement,” Macut emphasized.

He stated that the Government of Serbia remains committed to dialogue, peace, and institutional resolution of all issues, with full respect for the rights and interests of the Serbian people.

“That is the only path leading toward lasting stability and a future in which Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija can live freely and with dignity. Therefore, we call on citizens to turn out in large numbers and appeal for a peaceful election day,” Macut concluded.
