Miroslav Lajčák

Air Chief Marshall Sir Stuart Peach has been named British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Envoy for the Western Balkans, adding to the list of international envoys to the region after the United States and European Union did the same with Gabriel Escobar and Miroslav Lajcak.

Escobar said that in Brussels after the meeting with the special envoy of the European Union for Belgrade-Pristina dialogue, Miroslav Lajcak, after he conducted separate talks with the heads of the negotiating teams of Belgrade and Pristina, Petar Petkovic and Besnik Bislimi, Radio Free Europe reports.
"Tensions are very high at the moment," Escobar said after the meeting.

On Tuesday, after the session of the National Security Council, Vui stated that he had received a proposal from the Quint and EU countries to resolve the tensions at the administrative crossings of Jarinje and Brnjak, caused by the abolition of license plates from Serbia, which he rejected.

He called for an immediate calming of tensions.
"It's important to reduce tensions, restore a peaceful atmosphere & allow for freedom of movement", Lajcak said on Twitter.
Lajcak, who is visiting Belgrade, emphasizes that he talked about the situation in the north of Kosovo and Metohija with the ambassadors of the European Union.

Washington hopes EU countries "understand" that the Western Balkans should be part of Europe "full stop" and is worried about the weak message coming from European capitals, the newly appointed department of state official responsible for the region said on Monday (13 September).

A new round of talks in Brussels is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. with bilateral meetings between the two sides with EU mediators. Prior to the meeting, the main mediator of the EU in the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina and the head of EU diplomacy, Josep Borrell, will address the media with a video message in which he will state his expectations from the talks.

On the occasion of Pristina's announcement that it would sue Serbia for genocide, Palmer said that such an approach would not contribute to resolving the problems between the two sides.
He told Pristina's RTV21 that Pristina must find a mechanism to implement the agreement on the Community of Serb Municipalities (CSM), respecting the Kosovo Constitution.

She was welcomed in front of the Austrian government building by Chancellor Sebastian Kurz.
The Austrian office published photos from the summit of the Western Balkans, which is being held in Vienna under the auspices of Chancellor Sebastian Kurz.
The published photos show Kosovo Prime Minister Kurti and Serbian Prime Minister Brnabic.

The last round of the ten-year dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina this time ended in less than two hours. The unwritten rule of Brussels diplomacy was confirmed that the longer a meeting lasts, the greater the possibility for a positive outcome.

The address is planned for 1 p.m. in the building of the General Secretariat of the President of the Republic.
