"We are of the opinion that we have the right and obligation to present our view in an open talk, as legal representatives of the Serbs residing south of the Ibar River who constitute two-thirds of all Serbs in Kosovo.
Therefore, we are requesting that you receive us as relevant representatives of all citizens and explicate to us the content of the agreement," the request reads.
The letter adds that if their participation is not confirmed, they will be forced to come again in front of the government building.
The letter was signed by the mayors of Pristina Radovan Nicic, Strpce - Zvonko Mihajlovic, Orahovac- Marjan Skoric, Kosovska Kamenica- Boban Jevtic, Lipljan- Zoran Spasic, Kosovo Polje- Stevica Lazic, Obilic- Goran Dancetovic and deputy head of the municipality of Vucitrn Miodrag Stolic.

Although they were not invited to the meeting and did not request to attend it, they wanted to take part in the talks.
