Former Slovenian president, Pahor: I'm preparing to lead the dialogue candidacy surrenders over the week in Brussels

Slovenia's former president, Borut Pahor, who aims to assume the role of European Union Special Emissar (BE) for Kosovo-Serbia dialogue, in an interview for the Slovenian public broadcaster Sunday, announced that formal candidacy for the position of chief of the dialogue process is expected to surrender over the next week to the chief of European diplomacy.

I have the feeling that I enjoy this support in Slovenia and that means a lot to me. I am preparing myself with great care and responsibility. And perhaps this week my candidacy will be handed over to Brussels, in which I will explain the reasons why I feel fit to resolve this”, Pahor said.

“Slovenia, like me, has the status of an honest mediator, rich experience in this region and, of course, also a series of ideas on how to refresh or revive this stalled dialogue. In general, the security and political situation in the region is very disturbing”, the former Slovenian president added.
