Pristina does not want solution for use of dinar in Kosovo and Metohija

Belgrade/Brussels, 25 March 2024

Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija Petar Petkovic said in Brussels today that Pristina does not have the political will to reach a solution for the use of the dinar in Kosovo and Metohija, announcing that a new round of dialogue on that issue at the technical level will be held on 4 April.

In a statement to journalists, after a trilateral and bilateral meeting as part of the dialogue in Brussels, Petkovic said that both sides presented their proposals for a solution, of which Belgrade's proposal was balanced and took into account Serbian interests, whereas Pristina presented a proposal in which it can be seen that they didn't make any effort to come up with something that could be called a solution.

We will continue to negotiate, we will invest the last atom of our strength just to reach a solution. We will do everything in our power to preserve peace and protect our people in Kosovo and Metohija, whose human rights are being violated and who are unable to receive their salaries, pensions and social benefits, Petkovic pointed out.

According to him, in direct negotiations, which lasted more than three and a half hours, proposals were discussed, and then there were talks at the level of bilateral meetings with the EU, where it was agreed to continue the talks on 4 April.
