What will Vucic and Mustafa talk in Brussels? (Politika)
After meetings of the expert teams of Belgrade and Pristina with the delegation of the European Union, which will be held for ten days, will be known what will be the topics of discussion between the Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic and Prime Minister Isa Mustafa, the end of January in Brussels.
The Serbian side insists on launching the practical implementation of the agreement on the Community/Association of the Serbian municipalities, while the Albanian side for the talks has set the condition of visa liberalization for Kosovo citizens.
How Politika daily unofficially learned in Brussels, on Wednesday, 13 January, associates of EU High Representative for foreign policy Federica Mogherini will arrive to Belgrade, and a day later will visit Pristina. The meeting of the two sides on technical level in Brussels is expected around 20 January, and the last week of the January and the meeting of the two Prime Ministers.
Marko Djuric, Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija, says that for Serbia the ZSO is the topic of all topics. He says that Belgrade expects from Pristina to respect the word and obligations, and that such stance has the support of the international community. He states as goals, the strengthening of rights and stability for the Serbs as well as the realization of their property rights and also emphasizes the protection of Serbian cultural heritage, property and the status of the Serbian Orthodox Church.
Mustafa announced, a few days ago, that Pristina wants the issues of air and rail transport as a subject for discussion and for which Belgrade is interested.
Isa Mustafa announced that Pristina would seek, in the continuation of dialogue in Brussels, implementation of so far achieved agreements.
"We will ask from Belgrade to dismantle all parallel structures in Kosovo, which unfortunately, although we have reached an agreement, the Serbian government continues to protect." He also cited as one of the issues which the Albanian side launched in Brussels, the issue of missing persons.
Media in Kosovo claim that the Kosovo Government will initiate the issue of pensions and reparations for destroyed homes and families whose members have died in the war in 1999. Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee for Kosovo and Metohija Milovan Drecun says that to everyone in Pristina is crystal clear that this is unrealistic. He says that Pristina needs to take responsibility for causing the war, horrible ethnic cleansing, crimes and destruction of civilian objects and not to undermine the normalization of relations with political ploys.
