Belgrade, Feb 17, 2006 - The negotiating
team for political talks on the future status of Kosovo-Metohija this evening
examined the position of the Belgrade delegation at the upcoming talks
on decentralisation of authority in Kosovo.
The negotiating team determined the
basic elements of a report it will present on its work so far at the upcoming
extraordinary session of the Serbian parliament, which will be held following
the decentralisation talks in Vienna.
The team also expressed full support for the draft letter by Head of the Coordinating Center for Kosovo-Metohija Sanda Raskovic-Ivic to the Head of UNMIK Soren Jessen-Petersen.
In that letter, Sanda Raskovic-Ivic warns once more of the grave violation of human rights of Serbs in Kosovo-Metohija, such as blocking of fixed and mobile telephone networks, suspension of electricity supply and the creation of disturbance in the reception of signals from television stations.
The negotiating team underlined once more that such premeditated pressure on Serb enclaves on the eve of decentralisation talks is unacceptable.
The negotiating team decided to include Bosko Mijatovic in the delegation.
Other members of the delegation of the negotiating team are Leon Kojen, Slobodan Samardzic, Goran Bogdanovic, Marko Jaksic, Randjel Nojkic, Milorad Todorovic and Thomas Fleiner.
