First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Ivica Dacic assessed on Friday that Burundi, with its decision, of  last year, to withdraw recognition of Kosovo, has contributed to a change in the balance of powers in the international arena and the position of Serbia in the negotiation process, the Serbian government announced.

Bakir Izetbegovic, president of the Party of Democratic Action (SDA), told Voice of America that he believes that in case Serbia recognizes Kosovo's independence, all radars will turn to Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Izetbegovic commented on the possible outcome of Belgrade-Pristina relations, but also the relationship between BiH and Kosovo, and sees the only link between Kosovo and BiH in that "the same side that has done the violence against Albanians on Kosovo, and in BiH against the Bosniaks ".
