Representatives of the Serbs in Kosovo assess that the decision of the Kosovo government to halt the dialogue with Belgrade until Haradinaj’s release represented an attempt to pressure the EU. The Serbs’ representatives have supported all the views of the Council for the National Security, and reiterate they would continue the policy in line with the current policy of Belgrade.
Deputy Prime Minister in the Kosovo government Branimir Stojanović notes that the interruption of the dialogue could create a burden for the Kosovo Serbs which they would not be able to carry, and “to play the game that they cannot play alone”.
“It means creating a great pressure, which we would not have been able to endure. It is therefore important to continue the dialogue and to jointly fight for the interests of this people”, said Stojanović.
