Chief negotiators in Brussels - Kosovo demands signature, Serbia executive

" Aman, tell me how you managed to get Vucic to sign an agreement with you ."

Chief negotiator Besnik Bislimi sent the request that Prime Minister Albin Kurti has repeated repeatedly in recent days to Brussels. The Government of Kosovo insists on signing agreements with Serbia, as a guarantee to move forward towards normalization.

After the end of the meeting between Bislim and the mediator of the European Union for the dialogue, Miroslav Lajçak, the chief negotiator announced that he discussed the implementation of the basic agreement, the implementing annex and the new plan to move forward.

"The Republic of Kosovo emphasized its positions as well as its readiness to sign and fully implement the agreements. The draft proposal for the implementation of Article 7 related to Article 10 was not part of the discussions, but the position of Prime Minister Kurti presented on October 26 to the leaders was reiterated, which means that moving forward should be done in accordance with the principle that only signature means acceptance and implementation of agreements."

" They spoke clearly about all aspects of the draft statute, especially the part that refers to executive power, primarily spatial planning, health, education, economic development and funding from Belgrade," said Petkovic .
