BELGRADE Ivica Dacic has said that "neither Brussels nor Pristina" wish to see an Albanian as mayor of the town of Kosovska Mitrovica. According to the Serbian prime minister, this is because such an outcome of the local elections there "could lead to incidents." "Serbs will decide if they want Albanian for mayor" Speaking in Belgrade on Monday, Dacic said that "the international community and the government of Serbia" had left it to the Kosovo Serbs to decide their own destiny, "and whether they will an Albanian for mayor." However - "the Serbs will not accept it; they don't want to elect, and they don't want to accept. There may be conflicts that can escalate into major incidents, and Serbia's hands tied, " the prime minister was quoted as saying. "It is known precisely how much Albanians have won, and it is known precisely how many Serbs should come out to vote in order to avoid having an Albanian at the helm of Kosovska Mitrovica," he continued, and added that a future community of Serb municipalities in Kosovo should be "an artery for the connection between Serbia and Serbs in Kosovo because all the others have been cut off." "It's the only way so that there is no change in the position of the Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija, jobs and the functioning of the relationship with Serbia," Dacic said. He added that "Serbia will do everything" so that incidents at the polling stations in Kosovska Mitrovica are not repeated, and that it "expected the support of EULEX, UNMIK and KFOR forces." According to Dacic, Kosovska Mitrovica is of great importance for the formation of the community of Serb municipalities. This concept is based on the town being the center of ten municipalities - four from the north and six from south of the Ibar River. The assembly of the community would also be located there.
