The European Commission Spokesperson, Maja Kociajncic, said that at the end of the discussions for Serbia’s membership at the European Union, Belgrade and Pristina should completely normalize their relations. This normalization should be described in a binding agreement between the parties.
“Recognition of Kosovo’s independence is not mentioned in our negotiating framework,” Kocijancic said.
She said that the EU supports Serbia’s and Kosovo’s efforts in the dialogue which is determinant to keep peace and stability in the region and Europe and added that progress in the dialogue is closely related to the progress of both parties in their European paths, avoiding blockade of each other in this road.
Kocijancic said that the process should gradually bring complete normalization of the relations between Kosovo and Serbia. According to her, this was made clear to both parties at the very beginning of the dialogue.
