Unsubstantiated accusations, our obligation is to warn

The diocese of Raska-Prizren emphasizes that the division of Kosovo and Metohija is increasingly the responsibility of the Church, but rather the fate of tens of thousands of believers and the most important sacred places

. has minimized the efforts of the President of the Republic and the Serbian Government for the preservation of Kosovo and Metohija as an integral part of Serbia, as it is understood that it is the duty and the obligation of all citizens. "

The diocese of Raska-Prizren indicates that the point of view, as well as the concerns expressed in the bishop's appeal, clearly stem from the strong and unique position of the Holy Assembly of Bishops of Serbian Orthodox Church

Fortunately, we mentioned the help given by the Government of the Republic of Serbia to the Church and our people over the last twenty years. that the political party was in power

The State of Serbia, or more exactly the people of Serbia, wholeheartedly helps its fellow citizens in Kosovo and Metohija to survive, to support the existing and to restore the destroyed heritage.

. what we get, we receive with the awareness that no one can buy us this money. The Serbian people and those who have directed it have always taken care of their sanctuaries, and even at the time of the secular Turkish authorities, It is with the awareness that they do not invest in their own glory, "For the good and welfare of the whole people, we have remembered such a story.

According to the eparchy it is much more important now to focus on the serious problem facing all those who must

"Therefore, the series of charges we face these days is trying not to understand as malicious intent, but as a temptation in humorous times, that we must overcome responsibly, work together to the good of our Church and our people ". in the declaration of the diocese.
