Aleksandar Vucic says the dialogue with Pristina on Sunday will be "difficult" - but that Belgrade will "defend its position."

Vucic added that Belgrade will strive for a compromise.

It will be, as he says, "yet another opportunity for our position to be heard, yet another opportunity to fight for our country and our people, while respecting the other side and with the desire to reach a solution."

Ahead of the Sunday meeting between the presidents of Serbia and Kosovo, the chiefs of the Belgrade and Pristina negotiating teams will continue a technical part of the dialogue in Brussels on Friday, with pessimism looming over the event.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said, on the statements given by Kosovo's representatives regarding the continuation of the dialogue, that he told the representatives of the European Union that, if those are Albanian attitudes then one should not waste the time on going to Brussels to continue the dialogue, reports Belgrade based daily Danas.

Aleksandar Vucic, the President of Serbia, has confirmed he will attend a meeting with his Kosovo’s counterpart Hashim Thaci on June 24 in Brussels but added he was not either pessimistic or optimistic regarding the outcome.

Serbia will never recognize Kosovo's independence, PM Ana Brnabic has said, and stressed that this would not be a compromise - something Belgrade favors. She stressed that a compromise would also not be possible if Serbia continued to insist that Kosovo belongs to it, Tanjug cited Germany's broadcaster Deutsche Welle, which quoted Brnabic's statement made for Germany's Welt newspaper. Brnabic also said that "relations with Pristina for us, Serbs, are difficult and emotional."

European Commission and the EU High Representative Federica Mogherini by organizing a meeting at the level of presidents in Brussels this Sunday, want to move a frozen dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina ahead, analyst Dusan Janjic said.

Aleksandar Vucic and Hashim Thaci should meet on Sunday, June 24, at a new round of dialogue in Brussels, Prva TV is reporting.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic invests more than 80 percent of his time in finding a compromise for Kosovo and Metohija.
