(4 years ago)Germany's Federal government in an answer has confirmed that there are proposals that have been made by Berlin and Paris within the framework of recent high-level meetings with Kosovo and Serbia leaders, however, argue they remain confidential and that discussions are continuing. Official Berlin emphasizes that these proposals [...]
From Berlin, the official emphasis is that these proposals that have been given are in the service of President Emmanuel Macron's intent and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz that political issues on the road to normalisation should be addressed in a more decisive and faster way so that there is no room for escalation on the ground.
It is our firm conviction that political issues regarding the road to full normalisation must be addressed in a more decisive and quick manner, so that there is no room for escalation on the ground. At recent high-level meetings, this is underlined and proposals for this purpose are confidentially discussed. These discussions are continuing”, he said in a written response to the Express Journal.
The German Government's Office for Media have said Berlin and Paris are giving their full support for the European Union-led dialogue between Pristina and Belgrade, which is facilitated by EU Special Representative Miroslav Lajcak.
Following the visit of Macron and Scholz's top advisers to the region, Jens Plotner and Emmanuel Bonne, has been Serbia's president, Alexander Vuciq, who has spoken first to the public, saying there is a German-French proposal on the table, which he claimed is aimed at Kosovo's membership in the UN without formal recognition from Serbia, until Belgrade receives accelerated economic support and membership.
A so-called <x0-currise new” of dialogue has been published in the media as well. A “cerkorsis such as” with content as published in the media have completely denied it by the government of Germany and named it “pecipe”>, while Prime Minister Albin Kurti and Foreign Minister Donika Grovall have confirmed that proposals from the two European centres exist. One has said, however, that the Franco-German proposal is still in a state of liquid until Kosovo's top diplomat has said the proposal they have received and that what has been published in the media resembles more than 10%.
