Star for plates: In this situation, the deal is impossible.

The European Union's Emisari for the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue, Miroslav Lajcak, has held separate meetings Wednesday with Pristina's chief negotiator for dialogue, Besnik Bissim and Belgrade's Petar Petkoviq.

Ymer says the meeting has only been held to express their positions to two states.

I think the pressure was there and there would be pressure, there would be pressure, there would be pressure on public statements, a kind of pressure on both sides, but it was then in many ways in what we think there was a far difference between what the EU and Washington have said, but it was essentially preventing the tension of a” situation.

“... in this situation, the agreement is impossible, or should remove hours from Serbia from applying these temporary signs and toʹi accepts Kosovo signs, which is impossible now, or give up Kosovo, which is also looking impossible. The key note being to Kosovo is not implementation, but the way it is done in the north continues to be the problem facing Kosovo”.

As for European Commission President Ursula Von Der Lyden's visit to Kosovo, Ymer says it is a previously planned agenda, it is not a special visit to the northern issue.

I wouldn't be surprised if as a meeting was planned earlier and there is a chance at this time, I don't think that EU states and the US have had this way of bringing Kosovo. Because now it seems we have not expected the response of these countries to act. In this direction, Von der Lyden's visit and the situation have not been linked in advance, but now of course they are part of the” discussions.

Following Wednesday's meetings, the Serbian delegation in talks with Kosovo in Brussels has failed to answer whether they accept the draft document to resolve the vehicle license plates issue.

While Kosovo delegation chief Besnik Bislimi said a draft document for resolving the license issue has been finalised, with EU mediation, but Belgrade has also not approved. / EO
