Vucic to Scott: Serbia ready for dialogue if Pristina scraps taxes 08 April 2019 13:12 2 minutes _____ BELGRADE - Meeting with US Ambassador to Belgrade Kyle Scott on Monday, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said he was not optimistic but that Serbia was ready to continue dialogue if Pristina revoked a decision introducing a 100 pct tax hike on goods from central Serbia. Discussing with Scott the future of the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue and the situation in the region, Vucic said Pristina had scrapped the dialogue by failing to meet the sole condition from the Brussels Agreement - the establishment of a Community of Serb Municipalities - as well as by adopting a platform for the talks, by setting up a Kosovo army and by introducing taxes on Serbian goods. He noted the problems that had led to a standstill in the dialogue should have been addressed sooner by the international community. "I am not optimistic, but if Pristina revokes the taxes, Serbia is ready to talk," a statement from the presidential press office quoted Vucic as saying. Scott said the US was supportive of a return to dialogue and noted a way must be found to continue it.
