New round of technical dialogue between Belgrade, Pristina to be held on November 16

BRUSSELS - The next technical-level meeting of the chief negotiators of Belgrade and Pristina, Petar Petkovic and Besnik Bislimi, will be held in Brussels on November 16, diplomatic sources have told Tanjug.

The parties last met in Brussels on October 26, when EU representatives held separate meetings with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Pristina's PM Albin Kurti.

After a series of meetings, Vucic noted that, in line with its policy, Serbia had said clearly it wanted implementation of all signed agreements - from the basic agreement signed in 2013 to agreements later reached in Brussels and Ohrid - and that it could not accept an independence of the so-called Kosovo.
