BRUSSELS - EU foreign policy and security chief Josep Borrell has called a high-level meeting of the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue in Brussels for Tuesday, May 2, and Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Pristina's PM Albin Kurti have confirmed their participation.

Kosovo on Thursday commemorated its annual Day of Forcibly Disappeared Persons with events intended to remember those who went missing during the 1998-99 war and to reiterate demands for justice.

The European Union on Monday criticised the elections held on Sunday in mainly Serbian north Kosovo, saying the very low turnout meant they offered no "long-term solution" to the crisis in the north.

BRUSSELS - The EU special envoy for the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue Miroslav Lajcak has announced that the first draft statute of a Community of Serb Municipalities in Kosovo-Metohija and the issue of missing persons would be the main topics of a Brussels meeting between Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Pristina's PM Albin Kurti slated for May 2.

BELGRADE - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said Sunday's local elections held by Pristina in four majority-Serb municipalities in the north of Kosovo-Metohija were not only an unequivocal defeat for Albin Kurti and his regime but also signalled tectonic changes in the province.

BELGRADE - The head of the Serbian government Office for Kosovo-Metohija Petar Petkovic said the results of Sunday's local elections held by Pristina in four majority-Serb municipalities in the north of Kosovo-Metohija were a defeat for its PM Albin Kurti and the international community and a victory of Serb unity.

After the demonstration of the capabilities of the Serbian Armed Forces "Granite 2023", the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vui, spoke about the situation in Kosovo and Metohija, the elections and the statement of the EU spokesperson.

The arrest of the director of the Kosovo Energy Corporation, KEK, has drawn completely different reactions from the ruling and opposition parties.
