Raspi warns that he may be killed

Rassic has said coalition officials he leads are under great pressure from Belgrade-led legal and illegal mechanisms to hurt and intimidate them. He has explained even though his opinion is that the ruling coalition, "Sloboda," is in this race to offer Kosovo Serbs another perspective in Kosovo.

I consider Kosovo Serbs to be an usurped people and have chosen a word as synonymous with freedom. So freedom from all negative phenomena. The moment official and informal Belgrade uses all its forces for political moments, violates troops, you must be ready for a war. The methods that are being used these days, where three to four people have left work, one commissioner has been suspended in the Gracanica municipality, as well as another commissioner his mother. How paradoxical it can be when a commissioner has his own political opinion and excludes his mother from work on this”, he has said of Telegrafi.

According to him, it is time for Kosovo Serbs to take their destiny and their case into their hands.

The threat is continuing, lynching, insult, language without culture. One of the first statements from the Serbian List has been that “we are parasites”. Unfortunately, this offense is continuing and is being supported by Belgrade's high-level side. For them we are all traitors, we are Albanian-Serbian. We're now operating like illegals. Like in some wartime resistance. Whoever meets with me or my associates find their way of lynching immediately. They do not hesitate to use any measures at their disposal”, he has said, adding that there are fears that by the time the election campaign officially starts, this language will become even more harsh.

We'll find it difficult to get to Zubin Potok, Zvecan but also other countries. I'm afraid it could happen worse. You know Ivanovic was killed because of politics, two northern municipality candidates have been killed. And this is the methodology that has been used, and we have to be careful. I haven't had any personal threats. Moral value should be one of the first principles in each politician. We are on the list that we believe that Kosovo Serbs deserve better than the Serbian List, which does not work nor have offered any” project, Rasiqi has said.

Among other things, Rassic has unveiled his government programme.

Besides economic programmes, it will also be strengthening Serbs within institutional programmes. Be part of the dialogue, of what's happening. We also have the declaration of reconciliation that for the first time has made a party. I will invite not only Serbs but also Albanians to see what is happening to us. The first goal is to make a reconciliation because we know there is an extreme radical happening in Belgrade”, he stressed.

We remember that early elections will be held on October 6th. Telegrafi has also tried to interview Serbian List officials, but that has been impossible so far.
