Those organizations stated that the establishment of the ZSO is "an obligation undertaken during the negotiations in Brussels" which was ratified by the Kosovo Assembly, and therefore the government of the provisional Pristina institutions "must find a way to implement it," announced the Institute for Territorial Economic Development (InTER).

"Therefore, we expect the government of Kosovo to initiate all the necessary steps as soon as possible in order to establish the Community/Association of Serb Municipalities in accordance with the principles agreed in Brussels," the announcement states.

The request was made by: CASA, ACDC, North Mitrovica Black and White World (CBS), North Mitrovica Forum for Development and Multi-Ethnic Cooperation (FDMC).

It was also signed by Gracanica Humane Center Mitrovica (HCM), North Mitrovica Institute for Territorial Economic Development (InTER), Zubin Potok New Social Initiative (NSI), North Mitrovica NGO Aktiv, North Mitrovica NGO Communication for Social Development (CSD), Gracnica Radio KiM, Gracanica UPZ Avenija, and Laplje village.
