The head of the Parliamentary Group of the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK), Ismet Beqiri, said on Monday that the Prime Minister Isa Mustafa, is willing to immediately report on what would be discussed in Brussels, and it is ready to do this on Thursday, if this round of talks ends today. This, according to him, demonstrates the willingness of the government for transparency. Speaking about the dismissal of the Communities and Returns Minister Aleksandar Jablanovic, Beqiri said that anyone who works to the detriment of Kosovo, has no place in Kosovo institutions.

BELGRADE -- Zeljko Sertic has said that the Serbian government will not allow the government of Kosovo to, with any act, violate the principle of ownership over property.

"The question of property cannot be resolved by a unilateral attitude of an individual. Serbia has a way to respond to such attempts," the Serbian economy minister told reporters at the government HQ on Monday.

As Kosovo and Serbia resume EU-mediated talks on normalizing relations on Monday, the demonstrations in Pristina, the most significant unrest since the former province of Serbia declared independence in 2008, indicate that Kosovars' growing impatience may present a new hurdle to the dialogue.

First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Serbia Ivica Dacic said that the dismissal of Serbian minister in the Kosovo government has a negative impact on the continuation of dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, but that the talks in Brussels should be continued. 

"The essential objective" of the latest developments in Kosovo is for Serbs to leave "the negotiations and local institutions," says Milivoje Mihajlovic.

"Pristina does not want agreement. The aim of Albanian extremists is for Serbs leave the Kosovo government and for that to be an excuse to continue on the path they took so far," said the director of the Serbian Government Office of Media Relations.

The former director of the Trepca mining complex, Ferat Shala, urged the opposition parties not to politicize this enterprise. He said that Trepca issue cannot be resolved in the streets, but in Kosovo institutions by hiring experts to do so. According to Shala, Trepca should not be discussed in any way with Belgrade. “Trepca mining complex should not be a topic of discussion in the Pristina-Belgrade dialogue. Kosovo shouldn’t discuss its properties with anyone,” said Shala.

Mayor of Gjakovica/Gjakova, Mimoza Kusari-Lila should apologize to displaced citizens of Djakovica/Djakova who were stoned.

It is the position of director of the Pristina Television Klan, Baton Haxhiu, who adds that the mayor should not be calling on Serbs not to come to Djakovica/Djakova on the upcoming memorial service.

He said in the TV show "Free Serbian", broadcasted on Serbian television network in Kosovo, that this message was "political and a big mistake of Mimoza Kusari".

Large anti-government protests organised by ethnic Albanian opposition parties erupted in Kosovo’s capital Pristina this week, more than a month after parliamentarians there approved a new coalition government. The protests were the largest since Kosovo unilaterally declared independence from Serbia in 2008.
Many Kosovars are dissatisfied with the new government, which has just ended a six-month political stalemate that followed the parliamentary elections of last June.

Kosovo’s government accused opposition leaders of trying to seize power using violence after protest clashes in Pristina that left over 170 people injured, while the opposition blamed the police.

Government and opposition have blamed each other for six hours of unrest near the government building during protests in central Pristina on Tuesday which resulted in 120 arrests.

Serbia will not give up on "Trepca" and we believe that the talks about the property should begin as soon as possible, said today Serbian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of construction, transport and infrastructure, Zorana Mihajlovic. 

"Serbia will certainly not give up the “Trepca”. The Serbian Government has shown in the last year that we are a factor of stability in the whole region and that we respect our agreements," said Mihajlovic.
