Kosovo Serb party to run in mayoral elections - Gazeta Express 2 minutes _____ Srpska List has decided to take part in the mayoral elections in four Serb-majority municipalities in northern Kosovo set to take place on 19 May. The decision was taken after representatives of this political entity met Serbia's top officials in Belgrade on Wednesday. Srpska List head, Goran Rakic, addressing media after meeting Serbian president, Aleksandar Vucic, said that they have decided to take part in elections in order to prevent Albanians or as he said "Serbian puppets" take the power in the north of Kosovo. He said that this decision has been taken after meeting Serbian president adding that they will not allow Albanians to take not a 0.1 percent of the control in northern part of Kosovo. "We will not allow Pristina, or someone from international community take our position. We have decided to participate in elections, so the Albanians would not be able to take the local government in the North," Rakic said. The mayors of Mitrovica North, Leposavic, Zubin Potok and Zvecan offered their resignations in protest over the Kosovo government's decision to impose 100 percent tariffs on Serbian goods last November. Following their resignation Kosovo's president Hashim Thaci has ordered four Serb-dominated municipalities to hold new mayoral elections on May 19. /GazetaExpress/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SERBIAN NEWS NETWORK" group.
