(9 years ago)Kosovo is entering the eighth year of dialogue with Serbia. Annie, why there have been numerous agreements signed in Brussels by the parties involved, they have not found full implementation by any country. Not specifying dialogue and not respecting signed agreements led to [...]
Not specifying dialogue and not respecting signed agreements led Ramush Haradinaj to seek US involvement in dialogue, but never had a US response to the issue, the news writes.
Although the EU is constantly demanding that the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue continue and countries improve relations between themselves, there has so far been no declaration on US involvement in dialogue.
Even told (from Serbian media) that when this topic was mentioned during Prime Minister Haradinaj's meeting with the European Union's High Representative for Foreign Policy and Security, Federica Moghrini, it had released the meeting, not even presenting itself at the pre-arranged media conference.
Although Kosovo President Hashim Thaci said days ago he had received confirmation from US Vice President Michael Pence that America will be more actively involved in dialogue between Pristina and Belgrade, but that never was said by the US or the EU.
EU spokeswoman Maja Kocijancic has spoken for the first time on this subject, but she has not given definite answers to US involvement in dialogue.
“The EU is working closely with the US for the Western Balkans”, was the EU spokeswoman's response to the question, has the US interest in involvement in the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue?
Kocijancic, among other things, has said, that dialogue work is ongoing, while countries are committed to improving relations.
“Work in the EU-mediated dialogue for normalising relations between Belgrade and Pristina is ongoing”, it has indicated.
Serbia, on the other hand, is conditioned to recognise Kosovo if it wants EU membership. And, Kocijancic says Pristina and Belgrade have already confirmed they are fully committed to resolving disputes.
The two sides have reconfirmed their strong commitment to the continuation of the talks and implementation of all outstanding agreements”, said among other things in the EU's response to news.net's spokeswoman.
Otherwise, the date is not yet set for continuing the final phase of dialogue between Pristina and Belgrade, where it is said to end with mutual recognition between countries
