Prime Minister Ivica Dacic, Head of the Office for Kosovo Aleksandar Vulin, and Nikolic's advisor Marko Djuric are also at the meeting.The focus of the meeting is on the local election in Kosovo set for November 3.According to Tanjug's findings, most of the district heads have been preparing for the local polls for quite some time, and after the meeting with the Serbian president they plan to register a civic initiative or group of citizens at the central electoral commission in Pristina.At the previous meeting, in which Serbian Prime Minister Ivica Dacic also took part, President Nikolic made it clear to the Kosovo Serb officials that they should deliver a decision concerning their participation in the election as soon as possible.In the meantime, officials of the four Serb-majority municipalities in northern Kosovo decided at a session of the interim assembly of the autonomous province of KiM in Zvecan that they deem the forthcoming local election in Kosovo unacceptable.
