Progress Report: Kosovo to establish Association without delay

“From Kosovo and Serbia are required to engage constructively and advance negotiations on the comprehensive, legally binding normalisation agreement, without further delays. Reaching this agreement is urgent and crucial for Kosovo and Serbia to advance in their European ways”.

The report mentions the Energy Agreement and the ID agreement.

The <x0-lines are expected urgently to reach an agreement on license plates, after failing to find a permanent solution within the EU-led working Group, whose six-month term expired in April 2022”.

Also, in terms of relations with Serbia, The EU has also cited the failure to allow Serbia's election hold and referendum in Kosovo.

Kosovo's “government has not allowed the easing of voting by the OSCE, according to last practice, to enable the Kosovo Serb community to vote in Serbia's constitutional referendum and general elections in 2022. It takes a constructive approach by Kosovo for Kosovo Serbs to exercise their democratic rights”.

Among other things, the report also speaks of the creation of the Serb majority Communist Association.

There has been no further progress in implementing the August 25th 2015 agreements. Kosovo authorities have failed to take action to establish the Association/Unibility of Serb majority municipalities in Kosovo, and Kosovo is required to engage constructively in its establishment without further delays or obstacles to”.

Meanwhile, bridges are required from Serbia to open in Mitrovica for vehicle flow.

In general, Kosovo has remained engaged in dialogue. However, the Kosovo government must keep its previous pledges and commit to full implementation of all past agreements within the dialogue. Moving forward, Kosovo also needs to make further substantial efforts to avoid actions that undermine stability and rhetoric that are not favourable for dialogue. Kosovo should contribute to a favourable environment for concluding a legally binding normalisation agreement with Serbia in its international relations. We expect Kosovo to engage more constructively in negotiations on legally binding normalisation agreement in the coming period and show flexibility to make rapid and concrete progress. ”
