The UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, said Belgrade-Pristina dialogue is facing serious challenges and that no sufficient progress has been made, including with regards to the establishment of Association/Community of Serb-majority municipalities.

Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned the Trump administration on Tuesday that if the United States disengages from many issues confronting the international community it will be replaced — and that won’t be good for America or for the world.

Guterres made clear to reporters at his first press conference here since taking the reins of the United Nations on Jan. 1 that proposed cuts in U.S. funding for the U.N. would be disastrous and create “an unsolvable problem to the management of the U.N.”

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has voiced his concern over obstacles blocking the continuation of dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina, Beta reported.

He is also worried about carrying out agreements reached through dialogue, as well as the rise of nationalism.
