Negotiations with Pristina to continue on 5 September in Brussels
Belgrade,
9 August 2011
Head of the Serbian negotiating team in dialogue with the provisional institutions of self-government in Pristina Borislav Stefanovic said last night that negotiations between Belgrade and Pristina will continue on 5 September in Brussels.
Stefanovic said, appearing on Radio-Television Serbia, that he expects the problem of customs seal to be solved then, which would reduce the tensions in Kosovo.
He stressed that Serbia remains committed to dialogue, because it is the only way to solve problems.
Solving the customs seal is separate from the question of regulating the turnover at the administrative crossing Jarinje, Stefanovic said, adding that Serbia cannot in any way accept the crossings of Brnjak and Jarinje to be the customs of Kosovo.
When it comes to today's meeting of the assembly of municipalities of northern Kosovo, he said he expects a right decision to be made about the agreement with KFOR, that would also suit the interests of the state and the interests of citizens in Kosovo-Metohija.
He recalled that the deficiency of such agreement is that the goods over 3.5 tons would enter the province with difficulty.
He said there are no deadlines for the removal of barricades and this should be done gradually.
I think that the Serbs in Kosovo during the crisis have learned that they should not relax, they should be ready and pay attention so as to prevent such things to reoccur in the future, said Stefanovic.
