Despite Zagreb’s announcements that it will again block Belgrade’s negotiations with the EU unless it doesn’t abolish the Law on Universal Jurisdiction, the real threat to Serbia’s European integration actually lays in Chapter 35, which refers to Kosovo.

Chapter 35, which has the same weight in the Negotiation Framework as recently opened Chapters 23 and 24, provides a mechanism for the monitoring of implementation of reached agreements in the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina.

Despite the fact that it lost its war in Kosovo, Serbian state continues to be proud of its past wars. Many Serbian politicians and veterans continue to cultivate this false pride.

A group of Serbs arrived in Gazimestan by Kosovo’s official buses, to mark their Vidovdan holiday. Other busses carrying Serbian plates have started to arrive there as well.

As seen in the picture, the bus carries Belgrade vehicle plates, and it is believed that people within the bus are from Serbia as well.

The Office of Kosovo Prime Minister announced it has submitted to European Union the regular report on the dialogue with Serbia.
