		Without Kosovo and Metohija the Serbian people will be a people without history, without identity, lost in the wastelands of time.

		In the opinion of officials of the Serb National Council of Kosovo and Metohija these two latest declarations by the Kosovo and Metohija parliament further undermine the process of building a democratic and multiethnic society in Kosovo and Metohija, and further widen the gap between the Albanian and Serb communities.
		Steiner only serves to encourage the separatist attempts of the Albanians and enable them to continue to use the Kosovo and Metohija parliament as a testing ground for the promotion of their nationalist and ethnically exclusively political goals, stated representatives in the SNC KIM headquarters.
