These are municipalities that could be introduced in the territorial exchange market with Serbia

Conditions, too, are territories to be only border municipalities, and not those within Kosovo that are physically not related to border regions. The inclusion of these enclaves would create new potential sites of the economic, political and security crisis”, the authors of the study “demographic and social effects of various scenarios of the normalisation of Belgrade and Pristina relations” whose editor is the Fund for Open Society.

According to what the beta agency has observed, the exchange opportunities for the Presevo Valley of Presevo territory have been considered, Bujanci and Medvedja in Serbia with the four municipalities in northern Kosovo quite Zvecani, Zubin-Potoku, Leposaviqi and the northern part of Mitrovica. The number of residents of the Presevo Valley, due to the census boycott, is not accurate but it is manipulated with the assessments of EU experts, the OSCE and US and Great Britain ambassadors.

These experts, as reported in this review of Koha.net, had said in 2011 that 29,619 people lived in Presevo, of whom 91 percent Albanians, in Bujanoc 38,275 of whom 53.4 percent Albanians, in Medvedja of 7,442 and non-Albanians are 92.9 percent.

The authors of the study think that including Medvedja with 7.1 per cent Albanians in return would be the unstable solution not only for Serbia but also for Kosovo. Buyanoc with 50-by-50 ethnic structure, exactly 53 per cent Albanians, hypothetically can be exercised as potential territory for exchange, but looking at the long-term plan would certainly be the hearth of new political problems and the risk of security.

The only municipality that can be the subject of exchange with Kosovo is Presevo with 91 per cent Albanians. With Serb majority municipalities Zvecan, Zubin Potok, Leposaviq and northern Mitrovica, in case of agreement with Pristina, they can trade for Presevo, while municipalities with Serb majority population Gora and Shtrpca would not be included in this scenario because they are not found at the Serbian border belt Kosovo, or that they would undermine Kosovo's administrative integrity with majority Albanians as well as Gracanica in eastern Kosovo.

The number of residents in northern Kosovo in four municipalities is 42.021, while the number of Albanians in the north is small.

On the condition that Presevo be exchanged for about 30,000 residents for four municipalities in the north with about 42 thousand inhabitants, Serbia would earn 12,000 and would have more 1,000 square kilometers than the section of Presevo.

Serbia's profit from exchange of territory and integration of municipalities in the north into its political economic system would be 0.3 per cent of GDP with 100m euros to be realised in the north, while Kosovo and Presevo would receive 0.14 per cent of its GDP.

According to the study that Time.net translated and delivered, for the sustainable exchange of territories, three conditions are necessary: The internal exchange of territories, the leveling through property transformation, and the restitution of church and private state property. The internal exchange of territories itself implies providing tourist and sports resorts to Sharr Bjeshks for any territory that could physically jump with Mitrovica municipalities, Lipjan, Leposaviqi and Zubin Potoku.

In this case, researchers think, the most adequate exchange would be the one in Sharr so that Serbia would own the entire Trepca plant, in the north, 4 thousand workers and south, with 5.5 thousand workers with all working units in northern municipalities.

It is estimated that the total reserves in the Albanian part (Kishnica, Ajval, Novoberda) are 50 million tons of xheh, while in the Serbian part there are a total of 6.5 million tonnes.

The authors of the study draw attention that structures and other complexes have not been maintained since the late 1980s.
