Vučić: Reconciliation between Albanians and Serbs is Kosovo goal

Serbia and Kosovo are about to meet again this weekend to discuss the last points of a possible agreement brokered by the European Union.

The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, told Euronews that the final aim of the talks was to bring Albanians and Serbs "both from Kosovo, but also Albanians and Serbs in an entire region, to live together".

Sergio Cantone, Euronews: Mr President, thank you for joining us. First question, you are about to open a new round of talks with your Kosovan counterpart. What is your red line?

Aleksandar Vučić, President of Serbia: I don’t speak very often about red lines, because if you speak too much about red lines, there are no real negotiations and the other side will insist only on these red lines. And it's more important to discuss the issue properly, which means to try to find compromise solutions.

Euronews: One of these previous arrangements is the Association of Serbian Municipalities in Kosovo…

Aleksandar Vučić: Yes, exactly.

Euronews: That you are asking for. But apparently, the Kosovan government is not ready to give, or at least there is a divergence of points of view concerning the way or the method?

Aleksandar Vučić: The issue is that we signed it in 2013 and 2015. And these are: the implementation plan, principles, management team and of course the first agreement. These four arrangements. We have everything already signed and also signed by European Union representatives and it has to be delivered. But that's not the final aim. The final aim is to bring Albanians and Serbs both from Kosovo, but also Albanians and Serbs in an entire region, to live together, to live much better and to respect each other.

Euronews: The problem for the Kosovans is that they are afraid of - that’s what
