PRISTINA – European Union Special Envoy for the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue Peter Sørensen met in Pristina yesterday with Kosovo’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Glauk Konjufca, the Kosovo Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
Konjufca informed Sørensen that the dialogue process will henceforth be led by Kosovo’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, according to the ministry.
The meeting addressed the current state of the dialogue, as well as “the approach and principles necessary to ensure an effective and sustainable process,” the statement said.
Konjufca added that Kosovo remains committed to viewing the dialogue as an opportunity to advance relations with Serbia, “as two sovereign states on their path toward European integration.”
According to KoSSev, the public had not been informed in advance about Sorensen’s visit. It remains unclear how long he will stay in Kosovo or whether his next destination will be Belgrade. The EU special envoy last visited Kosovo in late January. On 11 February, his mandate in the position was extended for another two years.
