Serbia objects to "14-point proposals" on Kosovo
status
VIENNA - Serbia objects to the "14-point proposals" on
Kosovo's status drawn up by the Troika of the United
States, Russia and the European Union, Serbian Foreign
Minister Vuk Jeremic said here on Monday during the
ongoing Kosovo talks.
The proposals, first discussed in October in Vienna,
call for internationally-supervised independence for
Kosovo.
Serbia is ready to offer autonomy to Kosovo, and
retain sovereignty over the province, the minister
said.
He urged the parties in the Kosovo status talks to
produce a document to rule out a "unilateral
declaration of independence" by the Kosovo side.
As the fourth round of Kosovo talks, the meetings are
not likely to produce a final agreement on the status
of Kosovo before Dec. 10, political analysts said.
Kosovo, which is Serbia's southern breakaway province,
has been run by the U.N. since mid-1999, when NATO
troops drove out Serbian forces fighting ethnic
Albanian separatists.
