BELGRADE French Ambassador Francois-Xavier Deniau says the engagement of the Serbian government in encouraging Kosovo Serbs to vote can be very useful. This is because the turnout in the forthcoming elections in Kosovo is important primarily because of the protection of interests of the local population, he said. French envoy: Useful to encourage Serbs to vote Deniau told Tanjug that he believes it is important to encourage Serbs to vote, primarily those in northern Kosovo. He expressed the belief that the best way for Kosovo Serbs to protect their interests and voice their stands is to appoint people who would represent them. Deniau did not wish to comment on the results of a recent survey conducted by the UNDP according to which 16 percent of voters in northern Kosovo mainly populated by Serbs announced that they would vote, while 44 percent said that they would boycott the elections. Instead, he said that the real indicator of the situation would be the November 3 elections themselves. The French ambassador expressed the hope that Kosovo Serbs would know how to protect their own interests and stands by appointing their representatives. (Beta, file) Tanjug
