The Serbian list decided not to enter the Kosovo government if Self-determination movement is part of it. President of the Forum for Ethnic Relations, Dusan Janjic said that it is imposed decision.

Then, the Serbian list voted for the selection of Isa Mustafa, whose party then had Self-determination as a partner," said Janjic.

BRUSSELS - The EU High Representative for Foreign Policy and Security Policy Catherine Ashton has welcomed the agreement reached earlier this week between Serbia's and Kosovo's power transmission companies with EU mediation.

"Through this agreement between the Transmission System Operators energy relations between Pristina and Belgrade will be normalised, and KOSTT can play its role of managing the high-voltage networks in Kosovo," Ashton said in a press release late Friday.

President of the Committee for Kosovo and Metohija, Milovan Drecun, says that statement of Vice President of Self-Determination movement, Visar Imeri, that Serbia needs to change approach towards Kosovo, is demonstrating policy of extremism. “They are actually the ones who do not contribute to the process of normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina, and not Serbian officials,” said Drecun.

Kosovo’s Deputy Prime Minister and chief negotiator Edita Tahiri travelled to Brussels today where she will attend meetings focused on the implementation of the agreement for collecting customs income at Kosovo’s two northern border crossing points. Tahiri will meet European Union representatives to discuss energy and telecom issues which have entered the phase of approval of action plans, paving way to the implementation of agreements in these areas.

BRUSSELS - The first chapters in Serbia's EU accession process should not be opened before the beginning of the next year, Tanjug learnt from diplomatic sources in Brussels.

The current mood among member countries is that additional efforts are still needed in the implementation of the Brussels agreement before an intergovernmental conference on the opening of chapters can be organised, Tanjug learnt in the EU seat.

Unfounded accusations and threats about the arrest of Zubin Potok Mayor, Stevan Vulović, seriously endanger the functioning of the municipality and the implementation of the Brussels agreement, was stated from Zubin Potok Municipality. 

The British Ambassador to Kosovo, Ian Cliff told Tanjug that part of the Brussels agreement, relating to the recognition of diplomas, does not function and that issue with recognition of diplomas issued by North Mitrovica University should be improved. 

Implementation of the Brussels Agreement is one of the three areas for which Belgrade, as announced, will receive a positive assessment in the annual report of the European Commission, which should appear in the first half of October.
