(4 months ago)EU Office chief Aivo Orav, in an interview with 4 Serbian-language media journalists has also been asked about the issue of association and the impression that this topic is not currently in the EU and Brussels agenda. Orav has said the EU has long reiterated that the [...] statue.
Orav has said that the EU has long reiterated that the Status of Association should be sent to the Constitution, however, such a thing has happened since it has been declared that the Sçukka Court will deal with this issue, namely, the jurisdictional scheme to assess.
“This stance has been held for a long time”, Orav said.
However, he stresses that such an attitude can be held by the EU for a very long time, but he says, and if it is known that there will still be no Association to Constitution, then such approach will help anyone, he says. Express Journal, broadcast Periscope.
He says that in diplomacy new ways must be found to deal with such processes, warning of finding new ways to push the issue forward.
Estonian diplomat has said that if Peter Sorensen's statement is read in detail, the EU's position is that association should be carried out in co-operation with the Serb community and within the framework of dialogue.
Orrav has said that regardless of when the association will be made, it is a duty, and such is known to Kosovo, the EU and Serbia.
The European Union has long held this stance that this draft of the Association should be sent to the Constitutional Court. He hasn't been sent yet. The Constitutional Court also said that in fact they have nothing to do with having no authority to assess it. And that attitude was held for a long time. Again, we can take this attitude for a very, very long, very long time, but if we know that it's not going to happen, then I think that kind of approach does not help anyone. So in diplomacy, we need to find ways to deal with these issues. And now, if you read it once again, or listen, I mean, there is no document, the statement of emissary Serensen, we have taken into account, it has to be done, without interruption, the Serb community and the EU dialogue. The Brussels dialogue means dialogue. Dialogue, also means Association. Whether it comes sooner or later or so, it has not disappeared, even if it has not been figured out so clearly, the association is there. And then the government knows here, Belgrade knows, and Emisari Serensen also knows”, has declared Orav. /Periscope
