Aleksandar Vucic, President of Serbia, confirmed that Serbia was ready to resume the Belgrade – Pristina dialogue on the normalization of relations as soon as Kosovo lifted the 100 percent import taxes on goods from Serbia and Bosnia introduced last November, the FoNet news agency reported.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic reached New York on Monday afternoon to attend the 74th session of the United Nations General Assembly

Immediately upon arrival, Vucic will meet with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Acting Assistant of US Secretary of State for Europe and Eurasian Affairs, Philip Reeker said the US is ready to get involved in the process of dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, however they may not do so until the both sides decide to return to the dialogue, RTS reports.

Reeker told Voice of America he spoke recently with the State Secretary Mike Pompeo about possible stronger role of the US in the process of the dialogue.

There is no solution for Kosovo without Serbia, and if someone thinks that eventual unification of Kosovo and Albania and creation of “Great Albania” could resolve this problem, that one is in illusion, Chairperson of the Serbian National Assembly Committee for Kosovo and Metohija Milovan Drecun told RTS.

“That would neither be peaceful nor sustainable solution, and it would not help stabilize the region. It is in full contradiction to all of that,” Drecun said for the RTS morning program.
