The ambassador of the United States in Serbia, Christopher Hill, told the N1 television in Serbia that during the meetings that are expected to take place in Kosovo and Serbia, there will be “some interesting proposals for both sides”.

The envoy to the European Union, Miroslav Lajcak, will hold meetings in Kosovo and Serbia on October 21. He will be accompanied by Washington’s envoy for the Western Balkans, Gabriel Escobar, by France’s envoy, Emmanuel Bonn, Germany’s Jens Plotner, and Italy’s Francesco Talo.

According to Brussels, the purpose of the visit is to push forward the implementation of the Agreement towards normalization, which Kosovo and Serbia reached earlier this year.

Hill also said that Lajcak “has heard a lot” and thinks he knows “what Serbia and Kosovo need”.

Ambassador Hill said that the US wants “an independent Kosovo, with a multi-ethnic environment” and the way forward according to him, as far as relations between Kosovo and Serbia are concerned, is the normalization of relations.

Earlier on October 12, Hill declared that “I want Serbia to understand and accept Kosovo as an independent state”.

“People say that Serbia just needs to understand that Kosovo is an independent state and move forward. I would also like that, but the fact is that the problem is more complicated,” he said.
