Minister without portfolio in the Serbian Government, Velimir Ilić, said to TV Pink, in regard to possibility that Serbia is put in situation to choose either EU or Kosovo, that Serbian Government has fulfilled all requests, and reminded that the request that Serbia recognizes Kosovo was already presented back in 2007.

The chairperson of the Forum for Ethnic Relations Dusan Janjic said to Radio Television Serbia (RTS) that he expects continuation of the dialogue in Brussels, and that meeting will take place, very soon, between the EU High Representative Federica Mogherini and Serbian Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic in relation to the EU accession process where certain things should be cleared. He explained that it is about two processes, one that refers to the dialogue and normalization of relations with Kosovo and the other one that refers to EU accession.

Bringing the status issue of the self-proclaimed independent Kosovo to the negotiating table, instead of the normalization of relations with Pristina, is unacceptable for Belgrade, Director of the Serbian government's Office for Kosovo and Metohija Marko Djuric said today, adding that the government would be clear about this with the EU.

Greek diplomat Dimitris Moschopoulos is the main lobbyist of Hashim Thaqi and Isa Mustafa for the admission of Kosovo into UNESCO, Blic learns.

Dimitris Moschopoulos was the head of the Greek office in Pristina, as well as Representative of the EU for the protection of Serbian cultural and religious heritage in Kosovo.

Nenad Djurdjevic from the Forum for Ethnic Relations said that it was a smart move of Pristina to engage this Greek.

Situation with regard to negotiation platform for Chapter 35, which is unacceptable for Serbia, should be clearer following today’s meeting between prime ministers of Serbia and Kosovo,  Vucic and Mustafa, with Mogherini.

We are very happy that UNESCO Executive Council has decided to place Kosovo on the agenda. That is small procedural victory because Serbia tried very hard to remove this topic from the agenda, said Kosovo Deputy Foreign Minister Petrit Selimi to Danas.

The government of Kosovo has expressed concern and regret for the violence exercised by militant groups of the opposition parties over the Kosovo Police and the other constitutional institutions, injuring seriously some police officials, casing damages to public and private properties and disturbing the citizens.

EC and the European External Action Service (EEAS) put forward the recommendation to the Council of Ministers and the EU Member States to open Chapter 35.

The EC and the EEAS put forward the recommendation to the Council of Ministers and the EU Member States to open Chapter 35 in the accession negotiations with Serbia, which refers to Kosovo, said Maja Kocijancic, the spokesperson of EU's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini.

In the course of the continued dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina in Brussels, Belgrade will push for obstructions of Kosovo Albanians with regard to implementation of the so far reached agreements to be on the agenda, particularly when it comes to the creation of the Association/Community of Serb municipalities (A/CSM), registration of energy companies from northern Kosovo and the Peace Park.

We are requesting from the government to freeze participation in the Brussels dialogue. Staging of a referendum is needed as soon as possible, where citizens would have their say about  continuation of the European integration, said leader of the Serbian People’s Party, Nenad Popović, to Novosti.
