These are the first steps.

After the weekend dinner in Brussels with Serbia's president, Vuciq, President Thaci has invited Parliament Speaker Kadri Veselini to his office on Monday, as well as government Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj, to agree on actions about the Association, writes Koha Ditore today.

According to the Presidency communiqué, at this joint meeting they have talked about current developments in the dialogue on normalising relations between Kosovo and Serbia, which is said to end with legally binding agreements between the two states.

“A meeting was concluded to create a wide institutional task force that will co-operate with the management team and the O mission. The SEU in Kosovo, for drafting the Association statute/ The municipality of Serb majority, in line with the Kosovo Constitution and the Kosovo Constitutional Court's decisions”, is said in communiqué.

“President Thaci, Prime Minister Veselin and Prime Minister Haradinaj agreed that Kosovo's dialogue with Serbia is the national interest of Kosovo, which must unite the entire political spectrum of Kosovo”.

Bekim Colak, adviser to President Thaci, said the day before the management team will be functional and he will be joined by international experts who will help draft the draft. But Avni Arifi, chairman of the negotiating team from the Government, has not ruled out the possibility of creating a new management team for drafting the statute. President Thaci's decision on Association comes after last Friday's meeting in Brussels with counterpart Aleksandar Vuciq.
