Kosovo President Hashim Thaci in an interview to Tanjug stated he believes a historic agreement on normalization of relations and reconciliation between Kosovo and Serbia would soon happen, and its aim it to “recognize reality.”

“This may be popular neither for me, nor for the President Vucic, but it would be good for Kosovo and Serbia. We are lucky to pay a political price for the sake of a better future for the forthcoming generations,” Thaci went on saying.

The Serbian government will soon discuss the Russian-Serbian Humanitarian Center (RSHC) and the status of its staff.

"It's really no longer either normal, nor do I understand why they (the US) are opposed to giving immunity to Russian humanitarian workers in the Nis Center," First Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic has told Vecernje Novosti.

President Aleksandar Vucic met on Thursday in Thessaloniki with European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker.

Serbia's EU integration was discussed, while Juncker "confirmed the clear and unequivocal European perspective of Serbia," said reports, citing a statement issued by the president's press office.

Vucic invited Juncker to visit Serbia during the mandate of the European Commission and stressed that since 2000, Serbia "believes in joining the European Union - but much time has passed."

Events in the Western Balkans twice cast a long shadow across Europe in the past century — first in 1914 and then in the 1990s. Both times, the forces unleashed by the carnage could not be contained within the existing international order. And in both instances, proffered solutions failed to resolve the underlying tensions that brought about the conflicts in the first place.

Former President of Serbia, Boris Tadic commenting on Aleksandar Vucic call for a nationwide dialogue on Kosovo issues, stated to Blic that he has presented his plan five years ago and it contained four topics.

After signing the Brussels agreement this plan is no longer implementable, so some solutions that were possible then are not possible now as it is too late.

Kosovo Assembly should decide on the format of the dialogue in Brussels, recently continued at the presidential level, RTS reported referring to Pristina-based media reports that Hashim Thaci, with unilateral decision to meet Aleskandar Vucic breached Constitution.

After the new government is formed, Kosovo Assembly should call for a session and decide about the future of a dialogue between Pristina and Belgrade, more respectively to appoint legitimate Kosovo representatives in Brussels.

European Commissioner For Regional Policy & Enlargement Johannes Hahn told CorD that the pace of negotiations depends on the progress countries make in implementing the necessary reforms.

-Quality goes before speed, but I always say that it is good to be ambitious. The Berlin Process serves to drive that reform programme forward, always with a view to strengthening each country’s preparations to meet their European Integration ambitions, said Hahn to CorD Magazine, published monthly in Belgrade.

Deputy leader of Vetevendosje movement, Fatmire Kollqaku, said that Kosovo’s restart of the dialogue with Serbia, by President Hashim Thaci, at the time when Kosovo has just went through an election process, is illegitimate.

In a recent interview with Sputnik, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said that Belgrade hopes for Russia’s assistance in the construction of a transit gas pipeline from the border.

Daily newspaper Večernje Novosti today writes that possible series of talks on changing the Constitution of Serbia, announced by Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, could begin already in autumn.

Vučić spoke on several occasions about the necessity of the dialogue on the highest legal act, and that he intends to come to a consensus on this issue, although he can provide a two-thirds majority in the Assembly.
