Petkovic and Lajcak met at the European Foreign Action Service building (EEAS) ahead of the new round of dialogue.
It is expected that the most important topic of meetings in Brussels will be the formation of the Serbian Communists Association in line with the 2013 and 2015 Brussels agreements.
During yesterday's day, the European Union's special envoy for the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue, Miroslav Lajcak, has talked about meetings he held this week in Kosovo and Serbia regarding the negotiations process.
Through a text on the social network on Facebook, Lajcak has said full focus on normalising reports and implementing the Brussels Agreement..
This is the first meeting of the chief negotiators after the high-level meeting between Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti and Serbia's president, Aleksandar Vuciq, 2 May in Brussels. At that meeting, political leaders agreed to the joint declaration for the missing from the last war in Kosovo, and the first draft draft of the Kosovo Serb majority municipalities' statute was introduced.
The Kosovo government has dismissed the Management Team, which has drafted the statute for Association, with the argument that this team has completed its mandate with the draft presentation. But this act of Kosovo executive in the EU is considered to be contrary to the dialogue agreement. The European bloc has voiced stance that this team of four Serb members should be functional until the adoption of the Association statute.
Kosovo and Serbia have reached two agreements on Association, in 2013 and 2015. But, the agreement on principles for establishing association, according to the Constitutional Court of Kosovo, is not in full harmony with the highest judicial act of the state. However, the Constitution has said it can be harmonised with legal acts.
