The Angela Merkel's foreign policy legacy is also in the play in the Kosovo-Serbia conflict and the stability of Europe and the future of the Western ally, believes Bodo Weber.

A senior associate of the Democratization Policy Council, a transatlantic research center based in Berlin, reminds Deutsche Welle (DW) that the negotiations between Kosovo and Serbia on a comprehensive agreement, launched in 2012 at the initiative of Chancellor Merkel herself, has seen a major US diplomatic offensive since the beginning of the year.

Political analyst Dragomir Andjelkovic believes there is a room to make an agreement about the territorial division of Kosovo, as a solution in the future, but only if this issue is linked to the status of Republika Srpska, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Tanjug news agency reported.

Commenting on Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic proposal to territorially divide Kosovo and that Serbian churches and monasteries get the same status as those on Holly Mountain Atos in Greece, Andjelkovic underlined it is a rational proposal that could have a future.
