Deal on normalization of relations "nowhere in sight" (B92, Danas, Beta)

The rhetoric of Belgrade's representatives shows that agreement on normalization relations with Pristina is nowhere in sight, according to the Belgrade based daily Danas.

The latest message from Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic that it is "difficult for them (the West) to come up with a new proposal, because big Western powers proceed from the territorial issue of Kosovo being resolved by gaining its independence" - is Belgrade's response to the "Quint" (US, Germany, UK, France and Italy) offer "to untangle the Kosovo knot."

Belgrade will continue to balance between the West and Russia (Danas)
