BELGRADE/ROME – Representatives of the Chambers of Commerce of Serbia and Kosovo conferred in Roma on Thursday on normalization of postal and railway traffic and other issues important for the advancement of economic activities in Kosovo.
The talks were held between Marko Djuric, director of the Serbian government’s Office for Kosovo-Metohija, and Edita Tahiri, Minister in charge of the dialogue with Belgrade representing Pristina’s interim institutions.
Tahiri refused to discuss the issue of air traffic and Belgrade-Pristina air line as an economic issue, and insisted that this can be discussed only as a political issue as part of the dialogue in Brussels, the statement reads.
Such a stance by Pristina politicizes an issue which is important for the citizens and the economy, Belgrade officials said.
The meeting, which was held under the auspices of the Eurochambers, agreed that a conference for businessmen from central Serbia and Kosovo should be held in Gracanica on May 9.
