Kallxo.com reports that an EULEX judge from the Kosovo’s Supreme Court Special Chamber has claimed that the law on Trepca mining complex is unconstitutional for two reasons, both relating to the fundamental right to property. The judge has addressed the Constitutional Court asking it to once again review the legality of the Trepca Law and annul it. The judge maintained that the economic goal of the Trepca Law was to take over the assets from the socially-owned enterprise to the newly-created shareholders association but the latter takes over no obligations.

Security Council session of the United Nations, on which will be presented a regular three-month report of the UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Kosovo, will be held on 16 November.

Večernje Novosti reports that Trepča will be discussed as well.

Marko Đurić said during his visit to Leposavić/Leposaviq that Serbia will take legal measures relating to the support of shareholders and all those who protect their interests before national and international judicial institutions.

Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija Marko Đurić said that workers of Trepča can count on any kind of support of the Government of Serbia.

He added that Kosovo's Trepča Act does not have any legal effect because it was annulled by the decision of the Government of Serbia.

Kosovo Assembly President Kadri Veseli today welcomed the Constitutional Court’s decision on Trepca Law. “I welcome the decision of the Constitutional Court, which confirms that Trepca Law is in compliance with the Constitution. Congratulations to miners and all Kosovo citizens,” Veseli said.

Kosovo’s Constitutional Court today rejected the request of the Serbian List for review of the constitutionality of the Trepca Law which was approved by Kosovo Assembly a few weeks ago. In conclusion, the Court finds that the Applicants did not substantiate their allegations on constitutional grounds and did not provide evidence indicating how and why the challenged Trepca Law violated the Constitution of Kosovo. Therefore, the Court states that the Law no. 05 / L-120 for Trepca is in compliance with the Constitution, meaning that it is constitutional.

The future of Trepča is an important issue that should be addressed in the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, believes the head of the European Parliament delegation for relations with Serbia Eduard Kukan, who hopes that Serbia will soon open new negotiating chapters with the EU.

Kosovo’s Minister without portfolio, Edita Tahiri, reacted today to statements made by Eduard Kukan, Member of the European Parliament, who said that Trepca is an important issue and must be solved through the Pristina-Belgrade dialogue. Tahiri told the news site that Trepca issue will not be discussed in Brussels. “Mr. Kukan’s statement does not correspond to reality. Despite that he comes from a country that has not recognized Kosovo, he should have known this because also Slovakia is a new state,” Tahiri said.

The President of the Assembly of Kosovo spoke today during a  visit to the children who are following education programs for democracy, about the visit of the Deputy Prime Minister Branimir Stojanović in Brussels. Stojanović is meeting European Union officials and discussing Trepca Law endorsed by Kosovo Assembly on 8 October. Based on Serbian media, he is considering this Law to be harmful. However, Veseli did not seem concerned about these meetings. “Trepca issue is over.

The first day of a new round of dialogue at the technical level between Belgrade and Pristina ended in Brussels on Wednesday afternoon.

During the negotiations, the Serbian side insisted on discussing the issue of the Trepca mining basin, which Pristina refused to do.

Therefore, this issue was discussed with the EU - the mediator in the Kosovo dialogue - and on that occasion representatives of the EU reiterated that they "took note" of Serbia's position.
