“It is illusion to think that with Callas there will be new process and new Kosovo- Serbia”

Lajcak said that in the Ohrid Agreement, the brightest minds have worked and that it is fully supported by all 27 member states.

He said the parties should apply to what they agreed on and that the sooner they understand it, the better.

And again, I don't think there's gonna be a new deal. Because if there was a better deal, someone would have proposed it. They're the greatest minds they've ever worked on this deal. This agreement is fully supported by the United States, by the 27 European Union member states, and in particular by Germany, France and Italy. So it is again an illusion to believe that with the new High Representative [of the EU], there will suddenly be a new process. The key parameters won't change. And for that reason, all that has been agreed upon is the basic principle. And the sooner we understand that, the better the”, Lajcak has stated in an interview for Radio Free Europe.

Look, the basic parameters will not change. The basic parameters of this process are well known. And of course, this includes the fact that the Serb community in Kosovo should be able to preserve its identity, feel secure and protected, have institutional relations with Serbia in line with European standards and within the legal framework of Kosovo. Let's be very clear about this. And, in exchange, Serbia must meet all elements of normalisation of relations”, Lajcak has said.
