The accusations of the entity “Lista Serbe” that the Government of the Republic of Kosovo has ordered excavations in the Orthodox cemeteries in the north of Mitrovica are absolutely untrue and unsustainable.
We want to inform the citizens that there is no decision either from the Government of the Republic of Kosovo or from the municipality for such an action.
On the other hand, the Ministry of Local Government Administration, clarifies that under the activity for construction and renovation of houses for non-majority communities in the municipalities, after evaluation carried out by the professional commission, the construction of the house of the owner R.C has been chosen to be financed.
MLGA only subsidizes the construction of the house with an area of 62m2. The beneficiary is obliged to contract the economic operator for the construction of the house and through the subsidy makes the payment directly. Regarding the opening of the road and damage to the Orthodox cemetery, MLGA has no responsibility over it, since this program only finances the construction of the house and not the road infrastructure.
The investments of the Government of Kosovo will always be at the service of the citizens without violating any right of any community or individual.
