Serbia and Kosovo continue to watch for progress as senior leaders push for the full implementation of the Ohrid Agreements. Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabić addressed Kosovo’s demand to honor all clauses without delay, signaling a firm stance from Belgrade. She pointed out that ten years have passed since the Brussels agreements were signed and the Union of Serb-majority Municipalities has yet to be established, urging Pristina to fulfill its commitments without further postponement.
Brnabić recalled the long wait for a concrete step toward the union, noting that the timeline marked a full decade. She underscored the need for action and called on Kosovo to move forward with the necessary arrangements that would bring the two sides closer to normalizing relations through clear, practical steps.
Former Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti reiterated that Serbia should not evade its duties under the Ohrid framework. His stance emphasized accountability and the expectation that all parties adhere to the agreed paths for reconciliation and regional stability.
The dialogue process, which included a high-level meeting in Ohrid, Macedonia, involved Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti under European Union mediation. After a lengthy discussion, lasting about twelve hours, both sides signaled their willingness to take tangible steps toward normalization. In a notable development, Kosovo agreed to begin negotiations immediately on the creation of a Union of Serb-majority Municipalities, a move seen as a potential cornerstone for broader regional cooperation.
