Pristina received some sort of “yellow light” from Washington to “act stubborn” before the next phase of negations in Brussels on resolving the Kosovo issue, which is shown by the refusal of Kosovo representatives to take part in a new round of technical dialogue, Danas daily reports referring to unofficial diplomatic sources.

Serbian Government Office for Kosovo and Metohija Director, Marko Djuric called European Union to declare itself on the stances of an EU Office in Kosovo Head Nataliya Apostolova, who said that frequent attacks of Albanians against Serbs in Kosovo are “tit for tat,” Serbian media reported.

With such reaction on dozens of attacks, in which lives of people and their properties are endangered, Apostolova, according to Djuric “sends a message to those who are attacking that attacks are welcome.”

European Commission Spokesperson, Maja Kocijancic said that technical dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina was not scheduled for today, adding she does not know about reports that some member states are dissatisfied by the manner in which they are informed on the course of a dialogue, Serbian media reported.

“We have never announced the meeting for today. Consultations with both sides on the level of technical dialogue are still ongoing,” Kocijanic said.

Serbian Minister of European Integration Jadranka Joksimovic, after meeting with the ambassadors of the EU Member State in Brussels, stated that none of the participants have mentioned direct involvement or change of the format of the dialogue, Radio Television of Serbia (RTS) reports.

Political scientist Nexhmedin Spahiu says Pristina did not decide on its own not to go to Brussels for a new round of the Kosovo dialogue.

The daily Vecernje Novosti is reporting at the same time that three EU members want to "speed up" the entire process.

EU High Representative Federica Mogherini personally reports to the EU member states on the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue at the meetings of the Council of Ministers of the Union, and her team on information about the course of the dialogue gives to the representatives of EU member states and within the various working groups of the EU Council, said Mogherini's spokeswoman Maja Kocijancic.

Normalising relations between Kosovo and Serbia is “the most complicated process in the Balkans at the moment”, according to the head of the EU’s office in Pristina. But both sides need steady encouragement from the international community to reach a final solution and progress towards EU membership.

Spain, one of the five European Union member states that have not recognised Kosovo independence, asked to take part in the EU mediated dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina aiming at normalization of relations between the two capitals, reports today Belgrade based daily Blic.

Madrid was not alone in requesting the participation, and some other states, namely the members of the so-called Visegrad Group, consisting of Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic, joined in, a daily reported on Wednesday.

Radio Free Europe learn that EU member states are demanding participation in the final phase of the dialogue between Serbia and Kosovo, which will lead to a legally binding agreement on a comprehensive normalization of relations.

RFE writes that according to European sources, member states have begun to demonstrate their disapproval of the lack of transparency in political dialogue, especially about the chapter dealing with the final agreement.

Although EU intended to hold a new round of technical dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina this week in Brussels, Pristina delegation refused so, Tanjug news agency learnt in Brussels.
