The envoy of the United States for the Western Balkans, Gabriel Escobar, said that he expects the dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia to normalize relations to continue “dynamically and constructively”.

“This is important both for the citizens and for peace, stability and overall progress in the region,” Escobar said.

He made the comments in Belgrade, after the meeting with the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, announced the Serbian Presidency.

Vucic, on the other hand, said that he had “important conversations” with the senior American diplomat.

On his Instagram account, Vucic said that he had discussed “all current developments” and open issues” in the dialogue between Belgrade and Prishtina.

He said that he insisted on the “full implementation of the agreements reached so far”, as well as international law.

“Serbia, as a serious, reliable and responsible country, continues to fight for the preservation of its people and its country, making maximum efforts to preserve peace and stability, as well as for the progress of the entire region,” said Vucic.
