Chocolate: Albin Kurti will strongly impose dialogue by internationals

Former European Integration Minister Bekim Colak has said dialogue with Serbia is a political process imposed by the international community.

He, in Rubikon of Kosovo, has said that as such dialogue with Serbia would be a very important issue that any Kosovo government should deal with until a final agreement is reached with Serbia.

The “Dialogue is not one thing the Government of Kosovo invented at the time, or a invented or imposed thing by Serbia. It was a question asked by the international community, more precisely by the United Nations General Assembly, that came immediately after the International Court of Justice's ruling on the issue Serbia had then addressed in terms of the legitimacy of Kosovo's declaration of Independence”.

“As a political process is imposed by the international community, so every time in the internal context we talk about dialogue we should have that clearly. We can't accuse any government of having or having no priority over the matter. It is an important issue imposed by the international community, and as such it is a burden to meet each government in Kosovo as long as a final agreement on the full normalisation of relations between Kosovo and Serbia” is not reached.

Colak has voiced confidence that the internationals will impose the issue of dialogue with Serbia and Prime Minister Albin Kurti, however, that the latter has set the issue as the fourth priority of its governance.

This government and prime minister [Albin Kurti] who leads this government has said this issue is not a priority, but whether or not it will be a priority we will see in the coming weeks. If dialogue doesn't resume within six months, then this government will prove that there is no priority for dialogue. No matter how far it will push, it is an issue that will again seek the attention of the government and all institutions. I don't think that for Kosovo, but neither for Serbia, there is another more important tool available to achieve the end of problems and open issues between the two states, and much more to hope to make progress in Euro-Atlantic processes, especially for Kosovo”.

“is not the question of a prime minister, government or parliament. I have no dilemma that it will be imposed, but how much resistance to this issue will tell time but I have no dilemma that it will be strongly imposed by the international community. There is no other mechanism that would replace the” dialog.
