A representative of the Goran ethnic community (GNZ) in Kosovo, Orhan Dragas, conveyed yesterday in Pristina to the representatives of UNMiK and KFOR officers the concern of Gorans regarding "increasingly frequent bomb attacks of Albanian terrorists" on Goran property in the south of Kosovo.
"Gorans in Kosovo live in fear for their lives although the situation in Gora is crystal clear, since only Gorans live in all 19 villages in that municipality," said Dragas.
Gorans will advocate in Brussels that the Constitution from 1974 be applied in the Gora municipality, as that Constitution gives a high degree of local self-rule to municipalities, which is also a proclaimed goal of UN in Kosmet, Orhan Dragas said for Danas.
Pressures on the Goran Community: Between Kosovo/a and Serbia As an ethnic minority, the Goran community is put in an awkward and vulnerable spot, in the middle of the political process.
By participating in the elections, Gorans would be expressing a willingness to co-operate in the new political landscape in Kosovo/a and this may raise their status in the eyes of their Kosovar Albanian neighbours.
Gorans have strong ties to Belgrade, but still perceive themselves, and are perceived by Serbs, as a distinct ethnic minority that remains somewhat removed from the Serb community.
