In meeting the challenges of today, we need a multilateral world with strong multilateral institutions, as well as universal respect for international law, said UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who addressed the opening of the 141st Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) via video link, Belgrade based news agency Tanjug reported.

The head of the list of candidates in front of the Serbian List Igor Simic told Belgrade based daily Politika that it is crucial for the list to win all 10 Serbian seats in the Assembly of Kosovo and warned that if the Albanians manage to plant a cuckoo in the nest and any of 'Trojan horses' wins a mandate, this would endanger the survival of the Serbian people.

The president of the European Movement of Serbs from Kosovo, Rada Trajkovic told Belgrade news agency FoNet that the "sole reason" for initiating a dialogue between the authorities and the opposition in Serbia was an attempt to hold and the opposition partially responsible in case Kosovo was taken out from the preamble to the Serbian Constitution.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who met with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic in Paris yesterday, understood the latest moves of Pristina as a major obstacle in further continuation of the dialogue, writes Belgrade-based daily Blic.

According to Blic, during the meeting, prior to the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I, held at the initiative of the German Chancellor, Vucic particularly insisted on Pristina's decision to increase customs duties on goods from Serbia and BiH.

Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik said that the policy of preserving territorial integrity, represented by Serbia, is an obstacle to the separation of Republika Srpska.

"If Serbia, in that moment, has said that it was OK, when Kosovo seceded, we would have been already separated," Dodik said in an interview with Deutsche Welle.

If Belgrade decides to recognize Kosovo's independence, Dodik says, he would not object, but it would mean that the Republika Srpska could be independent.

Minister of State Administration Branko Ružić believes that the interest of Serbia and the Kosovo Serbs is maximal involvement in the work of Kosovo institutions, and one should not be guided by emotions or myths.

"It is our interest to be maximally involved in order to preserve, above all, the right to the existence of the 150,000 Serbs living down there," Ružić said, commenting on the formation of a new Kosovo government, led by Ramush Haradinaj.

Political analyst Dušan Janjić told RTK2 that a meeting at the presidential level in Brussels is of great importance for the normalization of relations.

In a statement for RTK2, Janjić estimated that no concrete decisions will be made at a meeting Thaçi- Vučić. He said that several months of “serious adaptation to this new format" will be needed for the political dialogue of the president of Serbia and Kosovo.

Foreign Minister Ivica Dačić says that Serbia is committed to peace and stability in the region and stability in BiH, and adds that everybody should start searching for common interest.

Stating that Serbia did not support the referendum in the Republika Srpska, at the meeting of parliamentary committee for foreign affairs, Dačić said that Serbia, as a country which is a guarantor of the Dayton Agreement, will respond to any threat while being able to protect itself and its interests.

As Dnevnik learns, EU Enlargement Commissioner Johannes Hahn will arrive in Belgrade on Friday. The source of Dnevnik says that one of the main themes of Serbian officials in talks with Hahn will be progress made in Chapter 35 regarding the normalization of relations with Pristina.

Oliver Ivanović assesses that Kosovo will have early elections by the end of the year. Explaining this position, the most famous prisoner of Kosovo, whose Citizens' Initiative SDP is part of the Serbian List in the Kosovo parliament, says that the withdrawal of the proposal of ratification of the agreement on the demarcation with Montenegro from the agenda, for the current government of Isa Mustafa is "the last nail into their own coffin."
