BELGRADE DOCUMENT IS UNACCEPTABLE -- RUGOVA

PRISTINA, Nov 6 (Hina) - President of the Democratic Alliance of Kosovo, Ibrahim Rugova, on Tuesday said the document signed in Belgrade by the UN Mission to Kosovo (UNMIK) administrator, Hans Haekkerup, and the chairman of the Yugoslav state coordinating body for Kosovo, Nebojsa Covic, on Kosovo Serbs voting in the upcoming general elections in the Yugoslav province was "unacceptable". Speaking before almost 10,000 citizens, Rugova said he did not want any conflicts with the UNMIK. On the contrary, "we shall continue to cooperate with the UN civil administration" with the aim of creating an atmosphere of security for all citizens in Kosovo. The Democratic Party of Kosovo led by Hashim Taqi and the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo with president Ramush Haradinaj at the helm, dismissed the signed document and refused to accept it. The UN Mission in Pristina said Tuesday's session of the Kosovo temporary steering board was postponed because of the failure of Rugova and Haradinaj to turn up, while Hashim Taqi, who was the first to express opposition to the document, arrived at the session.
