Negotiation

BRUSSELS - Officials of Belgrade and Pristina are due to hold separate meetings with EU officials in Brussels on Thursday, a source in the EU told Tanjug on Tuesday.

The source said the two parties would not hold a joint high-level meeting.

Details about the place and time of the meetings are yet to be announced.

The public debate in Greece on whether solutions can and should be found for the country's disputes with Turkey tends to be extremely shallow and toxic.

There can be no real discussion with people who insist that no moves should be made or talks take place, who accuse and sometimes even insult those who disagree with them.

No one chooses their geographical neighbors. That is why it is essential to find rules for living with them, such as:

During their recent meeting on the sidelines of the NATO summit at Vilnius, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan appeared ready for a tentative rapprochement that may lead to a negotiation down the line. Even though such a prospect is still a long way away, the discussion has already started - with no shortage of passion and hyperbole.

He said that the new round of dialogue with chief negotiators Petar Petkovi and Besnik Bislimi was focused on the implementation of the agreements reached.
"We discussed the way forward of implementation of the Agreement from February 27 and aimed to clarify open issues. Discussions will continue," Lajcak wrote on Twitter.

The chairman of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS), Mustafa Karadayi, called from the parliamentary rostrum for a dialogue between the political forces and the formation of a government with Euro-Atlantic values with clear tasks and specific deadlines.

BRUSSELS - In a statement ahead of an April 4 Brussels meeting of the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue, the EU said on Friday it expected both parties to contribute to an atmosphere of reconciliation, normalisation and quick implementation of agreements.

"Besides arms deliveries and financial support, we have to propose perspectives to the growing critical issues in the US as well as in Germany," Ischinger wrote in an article for the German Tagespiegel newspaper.
At the same time, according to his words, "we cannot talk about demanding that Ukraine be ready for negotiations right now."

On the agenda of the special Serbian Parliament session is the Government's "Report on the negotiation process with the institutions of temporary self-government in Pristina, from September 1, 2022, to January 15, 2023".

Any answer to whether an agreement is possible on the issue of the Parthenon Sculptures is unlikely to be correct. Or is it? Let's get our facts straight first.
