During the trilateral meeting, the only topic has been the issue of the unknown. Kosovo Deputy Prime Minister Besnik Bislimi said that on this issue, the parties have expressed readiness to have access to state archives.

No KLA archives, but there are state archives for The KLA in Kosovo and we are and have been open to share this information”, Bislim said.

He also indicated that they have agreed that working groups on the issue of the missing will meet regularly and that the lifeless bodies found in the mass cemetery in Kizevac, Serbia, will be handed over to families. He said seven mortore remains have been identified by authorities in Belgrade and the remains of two identified persons are found in Pristina's morgue.
