Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS) leader Vojislav Kostunica said that the Vojvodina statute proposal is unconstitutional and urges separatism. He also said that the goal of the statute is to create “a state within a state.” Kostunica: Statute urges separatism “After all the misfortune that has occurred to our people, the ruling regime now with its irresponsibility and completely irrational policies is creating divisions between Serbia and Vojvodina,” Kostunica told the Beta news agency. He said that according to the new statute, the Serbian embassy in Brussels is not good enough, because there are jobs that the Serbian Foreign Ministry cannot do for Vojvodina, so the province will have to open its own headquarters abroad. The DSS leader added that Serbia “will have two governments in the future, two national academies, Latin letters being used in Vojvodina as the basis for forming a new identity, which all leads to a special separatist character of the Vojvodina statute.” Kostunica said the decree for the referendum for the territory of Vojvodina is very dangerous for the integrity of the country, because it can be interpreted as the implementation of a special territorial integrity for Vojvodina in relation to Serbia. “That is why there is a great amount of responsibility on the MPs of the Serbian parliament who have to give the final word on the statute. It is up to the MPs to make a decision on whether to defend the interests of the people and reject the statute, or serve party interests and become participators in the disassembling of the state,” Kostunica said.
