Heavenier to Article 7 of the deal: The issue of self-awareness of the Serb community is reference to association

Hovenier says that at this point, one should refer to Article 10, which says the parties confirm their obligation to implement all past dialogue agreements, which remain valid and binding.

Among other things, he says the US has already expressed its views, where, among other things, the progress of association is an important part of implementing this agreement.

This is fair and of course, some of it will have to be discussed in the context of the implementation plan. But I would also refer to Article ten, which says the parties confirm their obligation to implement all past dialogue agreements, which remain valid and binding”.

So again I think that this issue of adequate self-management for the Serb community in Kosovo is reference to association and again, I have already expressed in this interview and many times, I have expressed the US views that this is part of it, that progress on the issue of association is an important part of implementing this agreement and what is most important, to a measure for Kosovo that meets the common vision we have as a multiethnic, sovereign state of the Democratic<56>

” As you know, I'm an American diplomat. I represent the United States. We have our experience with multiethnicity and I won't lie to you and say we've always worked properly.
I think anyone who's studied our history knows how many times we've done the right thing and not just in the past, but even recently the news has been filled with that, despite our aspirations and principles, we haven't successfully enabled equal respect or equal opportunity for all, equal treatment of all, no matter what ethnicity, gender or other distinguishing features”

But when we do, we're stronger, we're better, we're more successful democracy. This is the vision we have for Kosovo”, Said Havener.. /Periscopi/
