DSS: Kosovo Serbs did not recognize false state
The opposition Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS) holds that the turnout of less than 15 percent in the local elections in Kosovo shows that the Serbs living in the province did not recognize the false state of Kosovo, unlike the government in Belgrade.

DSS spokesperson Petar Petkovic told a press conference that the “miserably low turnout" announced by the Pristina authorities shows a complete defeat of the government in Belgrade.If the elections had been held in accordance with the laws and the Constitution of Serbia and called by the Serbian parliament speaker instead of the “false president of the false state of Kosovo”, the turnout would have been much higher, he noted.Petkovic accused the current Belgrade authorities of “celebrating the killing and destruction of their own country” after the elections results were announced, noting that nobody had ever done that before them.He criticized the Serbian presidential advisor Marko Djuric who said that Serbia won a historic victory in Kosovo, and that good results of the local elections ensured all preconditions “for forming a community of Serb municipalities and achieving key objectives of our (Serbia's) state and national policy in Kosovo".The Kosovo Serbs have demonstrated that these were not their elections, that they observe the Constitution and the laws of Serbia, and not the false state of Kosovo and its Constitution, DSS spokesperson said.
