Over 14,000 signatures for “Ferizaj without Uroševac” submitted to the Assembly

More than 14,000 signatures from Ferizaj citizens, collected over three consecutive months, were handed to elected representatives in the Kosovo Assembly on Monday, demanding that the city shed its Serbian-language name “Uroševac”, imposed a century ago, as Klan Kosova reports.

According to the same report, the submission of the petition material on this September 28 was made with purpose, while its initiator says there is no obligation to preserve what remains as a legacy from Serbia, expressing optimism that their request will be taken into account.

From the Assembly, the initiator expressed hope that his initiative would serve as an example for other localities in Kosovo as well.
