(5 years ago)Nenad Raspi from the Kosovo Progressive Party of Serbs during an interview for “Facing” has spoken of the threats being made to Kosovo Serbs at the time of the elections, of the initiative he formed with other Serbs they will compete with in the February 14th elections and the Serb situation in [...]
Rassic has said they have formed the <x0-> Initiative for Freedom, Justice and Survival”, as he said Serbs in Kosovo need freedom, justice and survival, stressing that he is convinced they will have pressure from Serbian politicians, as has happened again and are close to the Belgrade-backed Serbian List.
In the last few days in particular, see what the president does most in recent days, then ministers, imagine that citizen doing. I want to quote what “Whoever doesn't vote Serbian List, has to lose pension, social scheme, the total salary of”. This is what happens over and over. I have no doubt that the pressure continues, because that's what they know to do. I'm doing this because I think we deserve more and better”, Raspic said of Telegrafi.
He said resistance existed earlier, but that according to him, the long time it has allowed the Serbian List to develop methodology so that people can no longer believe that conditions will improve if they complain.
“absolutely will happen. Resistance has existed, but it's hard to convince the citizen that their rights are protected because we have history, the Serbian List is now 10 years old. They've developed methodology where people don't trust me if they sue, if they complain. It's left to survive, it could be that, they say, vote that way. Our loss as Kosovars is that we have begun to create an apathy. If they've ever believed, they don't believe the institutions will protect them now. We're talking basic rights”, Rassic said.
Rassic has even compared the Kosovo Serbs' situation to North Korean citizens.
“The biggest challenge of Serbs, I have reiterated that I don't know what the North Koreans are like, but as far as elections are concerned, then they're similar, because we're going through a difficult time and we need it even though we know what opposition we're facing. A politician's job is to be present in society”, Rassic said.
The hearing in this interview has also told of threats an observer from his initiative has received from the Serbian List's deputy candidate in the municipality of Sterpce. He has also spoken of new elections and the possibility of who will win.
