US "loop" narrows for Serbia, US enters the game to finalize Pristina-Belgrade agreement as soon as possible, Vucic warns

The United States is entering the game to finalize an agreement between Kosovo and Serbia as soon as possible. Together with the European Union's insistence, the Americans hope that an agreement between Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti will be reached within their mandate. Serbia is also feeling the pressure. Vucic himself has said that Western powers are working to resolve the Kosovo issue as soon as possible. He said he is in a difficult position. The signals come from the very important meeting of the EU delegate for the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue, Miroslav Lajcak. He concluded a 3-day visit to the US where he held several meetings on EU-US cooperation for the Western Balkans, Lajçak said that during his visit he had consultations with American partners to find a way forward for the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue. "I have completed my three-day visit to Washington DC. "We had a number of intensive and productive consultations on our EU-US cooperation in the Western Balkans and the way forward in the Dialogue for the normalization of relations between Kosovo and Serbia", wrote Lajçak. The last meeting between the parties failed, as no agreement or progress was reached on the issue of license plates, energy and missing persons. Kurti and Vucic met in Germany at the invitation of Chancellor Olaf Scholz, but both sides failed to determine a continuation of the dialogue. The latest achievement between the two countries has been the Washington agreement in 2021, which has already ended. "I have completed my three-day visit to Washington DC.

Vucic: We are under pressure

During a meeting at the Presidential Palace, Vucic said Belgrade is in a difficult situation. The Serbian president added that Western powers are working to resolve the Kosovo issue as soon as possible, reports B92. In the face of growing pressure, Vucic said it would be difficult to defend Serbia's interests. "We are the only country in Europe that has not imposed sanctions on Russia and that is why we are under a lot of pressure. I have never seen this in my life. "We are facing hysteria and no one is listening to us," Vucic added.
