The Association of Montenegrins of Kosovo has reacted against the statements of Kosovar Serb leaders denying the existence of the Montenegrin minority in the Republic of Kosovo.
In a press statement issued for the media, the Montenegrin Association of Kosovo strongly pposes the statements of Rada Trajkovic and Marko Jakshic on the daily Montenegrin "Dan", where they both bluntly deny the existence of the Montenegrin minority in Kosovo.
"The position, which is being continuously displayed by the Serb local leaders in Kosovo through their political activities, is in the spirit of the special method of war, with impunity, which are making the Serbian nationalists against the nation and state of Montenegro, especially in the last 20 years," the statement says, which was signed by the Chairman of the Association of Montenegrins in Kosovo, Slobodan Vujicic.
"Such despicable presentation by the leaders of the Kosovar Serb minority shows the fall of their morale; their political primitivism, which has caused grievous, loses to all people of Kosovo. Now, they are attempting to attack the pride of the Kosovar Montenegrins to destroy and prevent the further realization of our guaranteed rights in the Republic of Kosovo," said the statement.
According to this association, this is one of the main reasons why the Kosovar Administration has to give closer attention to the Montenegrin minority to win equal protection by the constitution and the equal status with other minority communities.
The Montenegrins of Kosovo complain that they are being threatened and blackmailed by the other minority, Serbs. "There is a growing pressure coming from the Serb minority in Kosovo attempting to assimilate the ethnic Montengrins," the Kosovar Montengrins say.
Meanwhile, the President of the Republic of Kosovo and the Government have pledged to give special attention to the Montenegrin community in the Kosovo.
Kosovar Montenegrins have been officially included in the Consultation-Advising Council of Ethnic Communities, which was established under the patronage of the Republic of Kosovo President Fatmir Sejdiu to better serve the needs of ethnic minorities in Kosovo on December of last year. This decision acknowledges the separate identity of Montenegrin community in Kosovo.
President of the Association of Montenegrins of Kosovo, Slobodan Vujicic, said that President Sejdiu named Manojlo Vukotic representative of the Montenegrin community in Kosovo to the Consultation-Advising Council of Ethnic Communities.
Montenegrins were e separate ethnicity under Tito's Yugoslavia however with the rise of Serb nationalism their separate identity was denied.
