United Nations Secretary General (UN SG) António Guterres, said on Friday during the meeting with the Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, that he follows the progress of Serbia and commended the initiative to open an internal dialogue on Kosovo, Serbian media reported.

Internal dialogue on Kosovo without Serbs from Kosovo makes no sense, concluded participants at the roundtable organized by the Serb National Forum, representatives of different political parties and non-governmental organizations in Gracanica yesterday, KIM Radio reported.

Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabić said today that a Working Group will be formed to logistically support Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and all citizens who want to participate in the internal dialogue on Kosovo.

Brnabić told Radio Television Vojvodina (RTV) that she had spoken with Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić about the dialogue and underlined that he would invite everyone to participate in it and that she hoped that as many people as possible would take part in it.

Reaction of the Serbian Deputy Prime Minister, Zorana Mihajlovic on the statement of the Patriarch Irinej given to Novosti daily and related to the internal dialogue on Kosovo, apart from being confused due to its illogic, causes doubts on the essence and possibility of a dialogue, the way it was described on several occasions by the President Vucic, said Serbian Orthodox Church Bishop of Backa Irinej, Sputnik reported.

Internal dialogue on Kosovo represents “much more than Kosovo” Norwegian Ambassador to Serbia, Arne Sannes Bjørnstad said, adding that this dialogue could help many to understand past and future of Serbia and prepare the ground for the future, Tanjug news agency reported.

“This dialogue is what Serbia wants to be and everybody should take part in that debate”. Bjørnstad also added that civil society should have an important role in the dialogue by opening the debate for marginalized groups too.

“For remain of the Serbs in Kosovo and our right to that territory, it would be dangerous if there is no internal dialogue and if we pretend not having any problems,” said former Editor-in-chief of the Serbian daily Politika and a journalist Ljiljana Smajlovic, RTV KIM reported.

Smajlovic, who also used to be the President of the Association of Journalists of Serbia (UNS) said Serbian society lacks debates on Kosovo.

“I have no fear that this dialogue would have some hidden motives and that it is an impetus to get rid of Kosovo,” she said.

Rasim Ljajic believes that a frozen conflict related to the Kosovo issue does not suit Serbia, and proposes "normalization without recognition" as a solution.

The minister of trade, telecommunications, and tourism, who also serves as a deputy PM and is the leader of the SDPS party, is the latest Serbian official to write an op-ed on this topic for a Belgrade newspaper, since President Aleksandar Vucic launched his "internal dialogue on Kosovo."

“Internal dialogue could significantly strengthen the negotiation position of Serbia and is important for the future generations too, therefore it is needed to achieve the widest social cohesion and jointly respond to the challenges we face,” stated to Blic, Director of the Serbian Government Office for Kosovo, Marko Djuric.

Commenting on “Cyprus model” proposed by Oliver Ivanovic as a possible solution of the Kosovo issue, Djuric said it is not a good model for Serbia.

Serbia’s president vowed to start a nationwide debate next month on unresolved relations with Kosovo and Albania, saying a “compromise” would fix most of his country’s political problems for a century and open the way to European Union membership.

Ivica Dacic believes it is possible that "the nervousness triggered by his delimitation proposal" concerning Kosovo is "the best indicator which way to go."

"It is good that dialogue about Kosovo has been initiated and that different ideas are being heard. Interestingly, and the president has noted it, too, so far only my idea to ​​talk about a delimitation to what is Serb and what it is Albanian has caused great nervousness on many sides," the foreign minister told Sputnik.
