Vucic: Substantial discussion with Sorensen about dialogue, peace in W Balkans

PRAGUE - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic met with the EU special envoy for the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue Peter Sorensen in Prague on Friday.

In an Instagram post, Vucic wrote that they had had a substantial and constructive discussion about a continuation of the EU-facilitated dialogue, regional challenges and preservation of peace and stability in the Western Balkans.

"I stressed that Serbia is fully committed to finding compromise solutions through dialogue, with full respect from international partners and with clear respect for the interests of our people. I noted that a return to the neglected foundations of any further discussions, such as the establishment of a Community of Serb Municipalities, is key for continuing the dialogue," Vucic posted.

He said he was grateful to Sorensen for his seriousness, professionalism and sincere commitment to peace and cooperation, as well as for the EU's support for Serbia on the European path.

"We are convinced that is it only with mutual respect and responsibility that we can ensure a better, more stable future to all citizens of the region," Vucic said.
