Continuation of talks between Belgrade, Pristina on 18 March in North Macedonia

Belgrade/Brussels, 27 February 2023

President of the Republic of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic said this evening in Brussels, after a joint meeting with EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell, EU Special Envoy for the Dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina Miroslav Lajcak, and Prime Minister of the Temporary Institutions of Self-Government in Pristina Albin Kurti, that it was agreed to continue the talks in the following period.

In a statement to journalists, Vucic said that the next meeting should take place on 18 March in North Macedonia, when EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell will visit the region.

Until then, we should discuss matters for implementation with Lajcak. It is also important that the EU's statement will mention the necessity of implementing all previous agreements. I insisted on the Community of Serb Municipalities, as did the European representatives. Kurti was not ready to accept it for now, we will see if he will accept it in the future, Vucic pointed out.

The President of Serbia expressed the hope that it is possible to reach some compromises.

I am afraid that we do not get stuck in something that was signed a long time ago and should have been implemented, the President of Serbia said.

Vucic expressed his belief that it will be possible to overcome unilateral moves that would endanger the people on the ground, as well as that it will be possible to work on the implementation of agreements previously reached.
