The EU also wants the dialogue be held at the level of the presidents. Kosovo President, Hashim Thaci, also is in favour of this idea but there is no formal decision on this issue. Thaci is considered by Brussels as a constructive leader in the talks, but he did not manage to implement the obligation deriving from the dialogue, the daily writes. Also the diplomats in the Brussels are following closely the behaviour of the prime minister Ramush Haradinaj on the dialogue.
