Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija says, in an interview with Dnevnik,  daily based in Novi Sad, that the goal of the Brussels-based dialogue is a new climate in the region.

This indicates that the Albanian side will no longer be able to push certain issues under the rug such as property.

Kosovo Deputy Prime Minister, Branimir Stojanovic confirmed to Dnevnik that the upcoming elections for the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia will be held in Kosovo. It means that the elections will be organized in all Serbian areas in coordination and with the assistance of the OSCE and other relevant international organizations.

Statement by the Prime Minister of Albania, Edi Rama that Albania and Kosovo will unite "in a classical manner" or within the EU, was intended primarily for the internal public, said Dusan Janjic to Dnevnik, adding that such an attitude of Albanian Prime Minister can only strengthen the position of Serbia in dialogue with Pristina.

- The government has no plan for the property in Kosovo and Metohija - told Fonet president of the Serbian National Party Nenad Popovic, adding that the first step is to impose such an urgent issue in talks with representatives of the international community.

Popovic points out that "we have to protect previous investments of the public enterprises in Kosovo, such as NIS, EPS, JAT, PTT, "Serbian Railways" and "Roads of Serbia". According to him, it is necessary to "valorise their claims from the period before 1999, which is guaranteed by the UN Security Council resolution."

The leader of the Independent Liberal Party (SLS), Slobodan Petrovic confirmed for Dnevnik that the Serbian list would accept to be part of the new ruling coalition in Kosovo, while he denied that some special conditions would be placed for Hashim Thaci and Isa Mustafa. Petrovic, who has been vice president of Thaci's previous government, explains that the basis for discussion would be topics that are on the table from day one - the issue of return, the formation of the ZSO, privatization, SPC and economic status of the Serbian community.

NOVI SAD - Oliver Ivanovic, leader of the Citizens' Initiative 'Freedom, Democracy, Justice“ (SDP) and the most famous prisoner in Kosovo-Metohija (KiM), said Sunday that the participation of KiM Serbs in the new government in Pristina, in full coordination with the Serbian government, could prove a far more efficient way to promote their vital interests.

- Members of the Parliamentary Board for European Integration received information on what was the content of discussions with representatives of the Bundestag, but requirements that are repeated during a meeting in Belgrade as a condition of further progress towards full membership in the EU will not be a separate item on the agenda of the forthcoming session - said for Dnevnik Board Chairman Alexander Senic, announcing a meeting of that body which will discuss quarterly report prepared by the office of the Minister without portfolio responsible for EU integration Jadranka Joksim

There are plenty of issues that need to be finished or started in the two or three talks between Belgrade and Pristina, if there will be some in fall in Brussels, then should be expected to define it until the end of the chapter 35 concerning Kosovo.

Further Serbia's path towards the EU will be a central topic of discussion of Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic in Berlin, estimated Predrag Simic, professor of Faculty of Political Sciences in Belgrade, who does not expect the country to be exposed to any new conditions.

Kosovo's Central Election Commission did not respond to the alert of the Mayor of the northern Mitrovica and seven other Kosovo municipalities that, because of the new rules for determining the number of seats won, and to the detriment of the Serbian people and other non-Albanian communities, the elections scheduled on 8 June could be boycotted.
