Kosovo President Secret Visit To United States GazetaExpress 2-3 minutes _____ Kosovo President Hashim Thaci is continuing his tour outside Kosovo. But half of this trip turns out to be secret. Initially Thaci travelled to London when he promoted an autobiographic book. After his visit to London he went to Paris when he met French President Emanuel Macron and decorated former president of France Nicolas Sarkozy, and former foreign minister Bernard Kouchner. The president of the People’s Party in Serbia, Vuk Jeremic, said recently that Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has been in “secret talks with Kosovo leaders, Hashim Thaci and Ramush Haradinaj” while trying to buy extra time for himself and his coalition partners in Pristina. Jeremic said that Vucic has travelled to the U.S. to continue secret negotiations with Thaci. Gazeta Express has learned that Thaci is already in the U.S. but remains unknown whether he met Serbian President Vucic or any of the U.S. officials there. Media in Belgrade have reported that Serbian President has met the U.S. officials and called his visit “diplomatic offensive on Kosovo’s issue.” Thaci and Vucic will meet also in Brussels on Friday at the invitation of the EU foreign policy chief, Federica Mogherini, who is facilitating the high level dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia. Over the weekend Vienna-based daily Der Standard reported on the plan of Kosovo’s partition. According to Der Standard it was Germany that has prevented Kosovo’s partition, a proposal supported by Serbs, as well as Kosovo side after being “tired” of continuous problems with the Serb-inhabited northern part of territory. A diplomat told the daily that secret talks between Kosovo and Serbia made the officials in Berlin react and prevent the partition. But an official told Der Standard that Thaci and Vucic might find other channels to discuss the idea. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "serbia" group.
