Three US approaches to reaching Kosovo- Serbia

Western diplomats have seen three ways in which the US can be included in the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue in order to reach agreement between the two countries.

The first way could be called “Model Kissinger”.
This implies that State Secretary Pompeo, or Security Councillor Bolton, will be involved in negotiations between Belgrade and Pristina, however real this is expected to happen in such a case. That's because neither Pompeo nor Bolton s'e are planning to take this difficult role, which requires a lot of time”, the paper quoted “danas” as an anonymous Western diplomat who has commented on US engagement in Kosovo's discussions.
As a second way of involvement in the United States, according to the sources of this newspaper, the Holbrooke” model is mentioned.
That means naming a top-ranking special emissary for participation in the talks.

As Washington's third possible approach to talks on Kosovo, the Coha.net broadcasts, diplomats name the so-called traditional “ <x0 model”. In this case, lower-ranking diplomats would be included in the talks, while, at the end of the process, the president or secretary of state himself would be involved in finalising the agreement and preparing the signing ceremony.
Diplomats stress that despite Trump's desire to actively participate in resolving the Kosovo-Serbia conflict, the US <x0minstrate is currently not well co-ordinated, while the situation may be even more difficult by January, when the Democrats will take over the House of Representatives”.
