No agreement on energy in Brussels (Akter, Blic, Vecernje Novosti, Tanjug)
Director of the Serbian government's Office for Kosovo-Metohija Marko Djuric said after the talks with Pristina's delegation in Brussels that no agreement on energy was reached, as Pristina refused to meet the obligations assumed earlier.
"Pristina did not accept for the community of Serb municipalities and the Electric Power Industry of Serbia to establish a new company that would deal with distribution of electricity in the north of Kosovo-Metohija and they bear the responsibility for not having much success today," he told the press in Brussels on Monday.
Djuric and Aleksandar Antic, Serbian Energy Minister, had several- hour meeting with Pristina's delegation, headed by Kosovo Deputy Prime Minister, Edita Tahiri.
“We could not accept that Serbia's considerable property in Kosovo be pulled out of our framework," he noted.
Djuric also said that by opposing the establishment of the new company members of the Pristina delegation violated the provisions from the Brussels Treaty and the Action Plan for its implementation agreed on earlier.
Pristina violates civil defense agreement
Director of the Serbian government's Office for Kosovo-Metohija, Marko Djuric stated that Pristina has violated the agreement on civil defense in northern Kosovo, as members of the Civil Defense have not got the positions Pristina promised them.
"I believe that the normalization process has been jeopardized the moment Pristina refused to discuss the community of Serb municipalities, despite it being the first element of the Brussels agreement and the first point of the Action Plan," Djuric told the press in Brussels after meeting with Pristina's delegation.
"It is on the great powers now to decide how they will treat Serbia, and we think that neither the opening of chapter 35 (which regards Kosovo as part of the accession negotiations) nor the entire process of European integration should suffer consequences of Pristina's stubborn and inconsistent attitude," Djuric said.
