(8 years ago)Dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia has not ceased and contacts between representatives of the two countries have continued, but there is still no specific date when the next meeting in Brussels will be held between the presidents of both countries, Hashim Thaci and Aleksandar Vucinqi. That a date is not set yet for a meeting [...]
That no date has yet been set for such a meeting, that is confirmed for Radio Free Europe, Maja Kocijanciq, spokesperson for the European Union's High Representative, Federica Moghrini.
She has stressed that the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, which is facilitating Mrs. Moghrin, is ongoing and that the so-called dialogue, as she says, has led to an important normalisation of relations.
In the next step, we will work to normalise relations brought to the overall level. In this context, presidents Hashim Thaci and Aleksandar Vuciq have begun working on the comprehensive normalisation of relations, and in this context they have met several times. But, the date of the next meeting, for now, we can't warn”, Kocijanciq said.
She has stressed that despite each of the presidents, separately, Thaci and Vuciq, are working on the comprehensive normalisation of relations, Brussels still cannot say what the next specific topic, which the two presidents will discuss, will be talking about at the next meeting in Brussels.
“If every time, the appointment themes are set with reconciliation between Belgrade and Pristina, with the support of the European Union. I can't warn the date, and in this context, neither the subject. When the date of the meeting is set, then we'll also warn”, Kocijanciq stressed.
The last meeting between President Thaci and President Vuciq, as well as European Union High Representative Federica Moghrini, has taken place on 16 May in Sofia, Bulgaria, at the European Union Summit and Western Balkan countries.
The same day, Kosovo President Hashim Thaci has stressed that reconciliation has been achieved that “the final phase of dialogue for normalising relations between Kosovo and Serbia begins in the near future, with a unique support of the EU, the US and other actors”.
Two days later, President Thaci has said that for the dialogue process, which, according to him, will continue soon, it is consulting all political subjects, including those of the opposition. He has praised the future dialogue as “difficult process”, which “will not be easy, neither for Kosovo nor for Serbia”.
On the other hand, Serbian President Vuciq earlier expressed confidence that within “6 months or a year”, a final agreement with Kosovo could be reached.
However, after the Sofia summit, Vuciq, though he has expressed readiness for further dialogue, in the direction of it, as he has said, “finding a compromise”, he has expressed unoptimistic for reaching a solution.
“Will it come to the solution? I hope so. I'm not an optimist, I'm going to do my best and I'm going to make a lot of effort to get to it”, Vuciq stressed.
However, while a date for the two presidents' meeting has not yet been set in Brussels, domestic debates still continue in Pristina if Kosovo needs to be included in the final phase of dialogue with Serbia, thus creating a platform and unity team.
