Today the first meeting after tensions in the north between Kurti and Vuciq

After the meetings are over, Borrell has warned that he will hold a media conference that will be broadcast live.

Kurti and Vucic have last met on 2 May, nine days after extraordinary elections in northern Kosovo.

After tensions erupted in the country's north, high-level meetings have been held, in addition to technical ones.

Yesterday, one day before the big “meeting, the high” was lowered, even the high expectations. Kurti has criticised the EU for unjust sanctions, the US and the EU have warned new measures if there is no progress in dialogue and if the parties are not responsible. What is expected from the September 14th meeting?

Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti, on the eve of the 14 September meeting in Brussels, has given a long interview for the renowned German media “Duetche Welle”.

Kurti for DW has spoken on many topics, including dialogue with Serbia, the next meeting in Brussels and EU measures. In the long interview, Kurti has estimated that EU measures are damaging Kosovo.

On the other hand, the executive chief estimated that the EU has damaged dialogue with Kosovo's punitive measures.

These are sanctions that are damaging to us, are damaging to us as regards the deal that Stabilisation and Association, are damaging us in terms of loans and grants and are damaging us in terms of high-level meetings. Imagine, my minister Nenad Rassic has been cancelled on the meeting in Brussels. He is a Serb from Kosovo, a minister in my government for the campaigning of communities and returns. But they haven't called them sanctions, but they have called them measures so they won't be forced to vote in the European Union. If they were to vote, I am convinced that the overwhelming majority of states would not be meant for, but have used a method of silent consensus with an email sent from Brussels and imposed measures on us. Kurti stressed.

“Tavline in Brussels is thus damaged and dialogue is damaged with these measures, and I believe that the sooner they are removed it's good for the European Union to present values even for Kosovo that needs development.” Kurti added

While, the US emissary for dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia, Gabriel Escobar, as the first few days before French President Emmanuel Macron, has warned the two countries that this will not mark progress within dialogue.

Escobar for Voice of America has cited as punitive measures against Kosovo, the issue of new recognitions, donor conferences, strategic dialogue with the US, and closer relations with NATO.

We're already beginning to see the consequences. Although Kosovo calls the sanctions, they are not really sanctions ) measures the EU has decided, not to continue with some of the membership mechanisms, are very serious. Even for Serbia, it will be the same. But for Kosovo, opportunities for new recognition, donor conferences, for strategic bilateral dialogue with the United States and for a close relationship with NATO. Unfortunately, if we don't score progress, we'll lose this chance this year. It will be very similar for Serbia. The European Union would like to see clearer signs from Serbia that it is interested in implementing this normalisation agreement, while deciding on Serbia's progress on its path towards integration. ” ] Escobar said.

President Macro's Warning

Two weeks ago, France's president, Emmanuel Macron, in his speech to the ambassadors, while speaking of relations between Kosovo and Serbia, has warned measures against the parties if they fail to act responsibly.

The French president has cited the visa issue and other economic issues as pledges that could be revised if the peacocks are not acting responsibly.

We expect peace to return to this part. France and Germany have made pledges regarding visa policies and other economic issues, which will be revised if the parties fail to act responsibly. We must be on guard especially in this regard, especially when it comes to stability in the Western Balkans.” has said Macro.
