BELGRADE, Feb. 22, 2005 (BETA) - A deputy of the Kosovo assembly, Oliver Ivanovic, stated in Belgrade on Tuesday that the Kosovo Serbs will not be satisfied with the intention of the Kosovo government for the Serb community to have five or six municipalities after the reform of local administration.

Ivanovic explained that the projected plan of decentralization increases the number of municipalities from the current 30 to 75 or 80, and said that the Serbs are currently a majority in five municipalities in Kosovo.

The Kosovo minister for local administration, Lutfi Haziri, said in Pristina that there will be no ethnic principles or changing of the existing municipal borders in the initial decentralization pilot projects.
