from serbia into kosovo bearing in mind that the end of. his relationship that hasn't happened yet. there have been some of the freedom of movement improvement because there's been a dialogue and over the past two years the filled by the. cross where you can go to serve you know you were so we can move freely into kosovo the problem is. this idea what a change in comes to. explain the context why it's part of the process of joining the e.u. the e.u. one hundred one that was a joint as a result of bilateral disputes and what is happening now is because there's been this artificial kind of deadline said that to follow the nineteen should be maybe the kind of date where final like comprehensive solution should be should be reached and the challenges of this is not the preferred option for coastal land swaps and and it does not enjoy and recent polling that show that it does not enjoy life the white support. but it's kind of has been imposed or at least a part of the political he thinks especially present us just kind of embrace this. because k

if serbia greece or something because we consider serbia as a sovereign state you serbia has or something was supported which was very much in accordance with or absolutely in accordance with international public law. and that's why we respected and appreciated that political attitude of president or to know russia very much on the other hand we've got a very clear response from several e.u. countries they were totally against it they were saying just to clear it up that. if that happens serbia will open the doors box on those balls about one of the changes and it was interesting green i totally disagree totally white how can we open pandora's box who opened those pandora's box in two thousand and eight accepting acknowledging and recognizing an independence of course or unilaterally proclaimed they were doing so. when they say to me ok we don't want to change the borders i really reply to them saying. it was it also is a part of serbia there are no border changes no no no we accept the border changes that we did ten years ago but now you cannot do it even if you will the groove on that w

i say or serbia's stance. you've invited him to come to serbia is that serbia was a different kind of a service or for anybody we serbs. they prefer no doubt trump than obama why. i don't know because serbs have always thought that was democrats' fault. was that aggression and the answer to the over is support its republican party resuming or else and. compass you said is pretty much a coalition of them and you know only a few things about his politics almost nothing about his politics of the balkans but at least john bolton he. opened the doors for possible arrangement between bell by them and that's what we appreciate and that's slightly a change. well their politics would have to see what it will have to say i cannot assess a takeout estimated asking is that the russians were also excited about trump winning because well thought that republicans were better than democrats for russia and put in trying to like each other on a personal level but then there's the stablish well that wouldn't let him do anything

is the solution make some sort of compromise for serbia the recognizes within these borders. and it's very difficult for kosovo to sort of. come up with. any more concessions more than it has given them by that i mean getting more rights into customer service so now with kosovo not having any more to give. would come to this ideal maybe exchanging territory isn't this is actually a. preferred by by serbia the key difference in lives from now acceptable is the shift in the international community until now borders have been sort of any talk of borders has been sort of strongly discouraged borders in the balkans have been. perceived to consume those who know sex and that countries should result in the minority issues within this existing borders with now and there's been a bit of a shift in the international community especially in terms of the u.s. position on this so this difference in opinion also is what openness of the us or this issue how does. the way some people in kosovo or especially present sees this and you know see that as one of the ways. of how possible it is alw
