Local media in Kosovo report that the Icelandic Presidency has not foreseen any discussions regarding Pristina\u2019s application to become a member of the Council.<\/p>\n<p>In the end of April, Kosovo officially started its membership path towards the CoE, after the Committee of Ministers voted in favor of the application request. It sparked a debate in Serbia, with President Vu\u010di\u0107 stating that there would be profound and fundamental changes in foreign policy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy should we protect someone\u2019s territorial integrity at any cost if they are against us? These are not tectonic, but deep and essential changes in politics and a responsible attitude towards our country,\u201d declared the Serbian president, while thanking the six other countries that voted against Kosovo\u2019s membership.<\/p>\n<p>It is not yet clear how long Kosovo\u2019s membership procedure will last. It is believed that the issue is closely related to the progress the dialogue with Serbia will have. There is however belief that Kosovo might become a member by the end of this year.<\/p>\n<p>According to procedures, the CoE is expected to name a rapporteur on the matter, who will be tasked with the preparation of a report, which will then be discussed and voted by the Parliamentary Assembly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heads of State and Government from the 46 Council of Europe member states meet today in a two-day summit in Reykjavik, Iceland.
