BRUSSELS AGREEMENTS BETWEEN KOSOVO AND SERBIA

Pristina and Belgrade negotiated in Brussels for over 10 years about 50 documents, concluded in 21 agreements, and about 80 percent of those have been implemented. The Brussels dialogue did not conclude the Kosovo-Serbia conflict, but it did resolve a number of concrete problems, consequently contributing to the normalizations of relations between the two societies. A new negotiation process cannot progress without addressing the rather intractable status dispute. The EU and the US will have to continue searching for a peace agreement model that satisfies both sides.
