Over RSD 6bn for projects in Serbian communities in Kosovo

Belgrade, 30 October 2018

At a joint session of the Serbian government and representatives of Serbs from Kosovo-Metohija held today, an investment plan for the southern province was adopted and measures of incentives for potential investors were agreed on.

President of the Republic of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic said in a statement for the press after the session that more than RSD 6 billion will be invested in various projects over the next 18 months.

He explained that these funds will be used to encourage the start of work of some factories, the construction of new production plants and reconstruction of health institutions – the Clinical Centre in Gracanica and the Health Centre in Kosovska Mitrovica.

Vucic added that investments will be made in the construction of cold storage facilities in the Serbian communities, construction of tourist centres in areas which meet the necessary conditions, such as Banjska, as well as in road and water infrastructure and the University.

Vucic expressed great concern over Pristina's intention to take over the electricity network in the north of Kosovo-Metohija together with energy facilities and equipment, contrary to all agreements reached.

He also warned that the Pristina authorities are preparing an illegal formation of a so-called Kosovo Army for the Albanian Flag Day on 28 November.
