EU High Representative for Foreign Policy and Security, Catherine Ashton, it seems has given up on her efforts to bring together for another round of dialogue prime ministers of Kosovo and Serbia. Sources told the paper that the dialogue between Pristina and Belgrade will not be able to resume before parliamentary elections take place in Serbia although Brussels insisted on organizing another meeting in order to reach agreement on three outstanding issues without which the implementation of the April agreement is impossible.
The EU will make efforts to bring the parties together right after elections take place in Serbia on 16 March but even then it will be very difficult until Belgrade constitutes new government. By then, Kosovo will also prepare for its own parliamentary elections which makes the resumption of the dialogue difficult.
