According to Belgrade based daily Vecernje Novosti, during the upcoming visit of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic to Beijing next week, the business of the century will be concluded, adding that a financial package with more than ten contracts will be initialled.
The president of the coordinating body of the Government of Serbia for Presevo, Bujanovac and Medvedja Zoran Stankovic told Belgrade based daily Vecernje Novosti that the southern part of central Serbia is not threatened by any armed conflict.
Stankovic categorically claims that a war in this area will not happen, despite "constant announcements".
Goran Rakic, president of the Serbian List, says that the Serbs from Kosovo are eagerly awaiting the arrival of President Aleksandar Vucic and his address, and that bearing in mind the interest of Serb people from all over Kosovo, Rakic is sure that this will be the greatest welcome of the President of Serbia since 1989 in Gazimestan.
France, like Germany, is against the "delimitation" between Belgrade and Pristina, reports today Belgrade based daily Vecernje Novosti.
Vecernje Novosti sources point out that the opposition was expressed to any change in borders or administrative lines in the region during a conference of ambassadors held last week, which was attended by French President Emmanuel Macron. Paris's position is even tougher than Berlin's position, the daily reports.
Vecernje Novosti today write that the authorities in Pristina largely present to the western embassies their solution for the status of an independent Kosovo in which the position of the Serbs would be arranged by the model of South Tyrol in Italy.
This action coincided with the agreement of Hashim Thaci and Ramush Haradinaj that there is no negotiation of demarcation and threatens to place Belgrade before a fait accompli, Novosti learns.
The United States, which will take over the presidency of the Security Council, will not include in the agenda in September a report by UN Secretary-General António Guterres on the situation in Kosovo, writes Belgrade based daily Vecernje Novosti.
Guterres's regular report refers to the period from April 16 to July 15, 2018, and it was due to be debated in August, but the UK "took it off the table", the daily reported.
The Mayor of Medvedja, Nebojsa Arsic said that he did not hear from the Albanian representatives there or anywhere else that they wanted to join Kosovo.
Medvedja is not a part of Presevo valley. The majority of municipality's population are Serbs.

Recognition of the position of the Serbian Orthodox Church in Kosovo and maintaining a legal regime of protection for 44 facilities that represent special zones of Serbian cultural and religious heritage, will be among the key demands of Belgrade during the dialogue on a comprehensive solution for normalizing relations with Pristina, writes Belgrade based daily Vecernje Novosti.
Serbian media reports that on 15 September President of Russia, Vladimir Putin will host Aleksandar Vucic President of Serbia to discuss a solution to Kosovo’s issue.
