Aleksandar Vucic is unlikely to win majority support for signing anything around Kosovo, Ipsos consultant Srdjan Bogosavljevic told Belgrade based news agency FoNet.

Bogosavljevic assessed that that the number of negative points increased for the Serbian president, while a possible loss in the referendum would be a blow to pro-European ideas and "very possible turning the pendulum to the other side".

Aleksandar Vucic, President of Serbia, confirmed that Serbia was ready to resume the Belgrade – Pristina dialogue on the normalization of relations as soon as Kosovo lifted the 100 percent import taxes on goods from Serbia and Bosnia introduced last November, the FoNet news agency reported.

Munter said he believed it was okay since there were people in Kosovo also ready to negotiate.
