Kosovar President Hashim Thaci's message that Kosovo "has red lines" before the final round of negotiations in Brussels, a recognition by Serbia, is for internal use, ie after Thaçi continually received criticism of Kosovo's opposition. Diplomatic representatives and analysts comment on Danas
Photo: EPA-EFE / DIMITAR DILKOFF SWIMMING POOL Our interlocutors remind us that negotiations are continuing on Wednesday, Thaci and the new meeting of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, Federica Mogerini, EU spokesperson on foreign and security policy.
"Talks are continuing and will certainly go to an agreement in the coming months," diplomats say.
Politician Boban Stojanovic tells Danas that Thaci's statement is "expected".
– From the beginning, they say that Belgrade should recognize them and round off their statehood. I am sure that they will be more than happy with the agreement that will allow them to become a UN spot, if that happens, says Stojanovic.
Borko Stefanovic, former Belgrade team leader for negotiations with Pristina and leader of the Serbian left, notes for Danas that the message of "red lines" is the result of the internal political crisis in Pristina and of the radicalization of the opposition.
– Such extreme demand means a status quo, and perhaps a suspension of negotiations, and a condition that Belgrade can not accept, says Stefanovic.
Igor Novakovic, a member of the Inclusive Management Council, told Danas that Thaci did not have sufficient parliamentary support and therefore needed to take a formal approach to consensus issues in Kosovo's society.
– Expectations are increasing, which may have consequences for the outcome of the current dialogue. In addition, some international factors consider that it is a solution or an objective, a global agreement. However, if it is a "red line", that is the lowest possible target for Pristina recognition, where is the compromise that the two Presidents have recently claimed? And without compromise, that is to say something that can be considered an unequivocal gain in Belgrade, in the current state of affairs, it is unlikely that Novakovic will reach this red line.
Enlarged Delegation
The President of Kosovo Hashim Thaçi, and next to him, will also be the Speaker of the Assembly Kadri Veselji, Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj and Deputy Prime Minister Fatmir LJimaj – all from the current ruling coalition. Foreign Minister Badges Pacoli will also join them, media reports from Pristina said last weekend. Representatives of the Kosovo Assembly and the Government will confirm Federica Mogerini's commitment to the Kosovo institutions for dialogue with Belgrade, as well as their commitment and commitment to engage the opposition in the dialogue in Belgrade. to create a full team, Radio KiM reported. The Kosovo delegation, however, will not follow Thaci at the announced meeting with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, but only with EU officials who intervene in the dialogue. The decision on the departure of the group in Brussels was taken at meetings of institutional and political representatives of Albanians in Pristina on Thursday and Friday.
