Sorensen to be EU envoy for Kosovo-Serbia dialogue from tomorrow

Danish politician Peter Sorensen, who was selected by the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Kaja Kallas, to replace Miroslav Lajcak in this post, will take up his mandate tomorrow, February 1st.

Sorensen has been finally confirmed as the envoy for the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue by the European Union Foreign Ministers.

Until now, this position has been held by envoy Miroslav Lajcak, who a few days ago, during his stay in Davos, had confirmed that this was his last week.

"Dialogue is more crucial than ever in today's world. I also met with leaders from the Balkans and participated in the traditional Diplomacy Dialogue for the region. In my intervention, I stressed that the EU is serious about enlarging the Union, but this will not happen by default, and I urged the region to stay the course. As I begin the last week of my almost five years in my current role, the coming days will focus on final briefings and handover procedures," Lajcak wrote.

Lajcak will be succeeded by diplomat Sorensen, who has extensive diplomatic experience in EU structures. Kosovapress (A2 Televizion)
