Upcoming elections crucial, president says

BELGRADE -- Belgrade team chief Borislav Stefanovi? has said that he will make a point to EU mediator Robert Cooper next week that Pri?tina's abuse needs to stop.

He explained that Pri?tina's attempts to impose Kosovo license plates and identity documents upon the citizens of Serbia in Kosovo had to be stopped.

Stefanovi?, who should confer with Cooper via a video link next week to discuss the implementation of the agreements reached, reiterated that the Serbian government was committed to implementing all agreements, but that the abuses had to stop.

?There are not much things left to implement. The main issue is the agreement on joint management of the administrative crossings and there will obviously be a lot of technical problems. But we will discuss with Cooper some problems that have arisen in the meantime, which represent a clear abuse by Pri?tina concerning the license plates of our (Serbian) citizens in Kosovo and Metohija and of our documents,? the team head told Tanjug.

He recalled that the leaflets that EULEX had been handing out at the Jarinje and Brnjak administrative crossings the other day, which stated that the citizens of Kosovo must have KS (Kosovo) or RKS (Republic of Kosovo) license plates, Kosovo identity cards and driving licenses starting from June 1, had been put out of force.

?It is good that there are no more of these leaflets and that they have been withdrawn. In any case, they certainly do not reflect the EU position, or that which was agreed in Brussels,? noted Stefanovi?.

?Freedom of movement applies to all alike; it should be broad and should enable people to lead a normal life, rather than worsening the situation by introducing certain categories of population. So we need to bypass all such challenges with a certain package of measures,? he stressed.

The Belgrade lead negotiator confirmed that the Belgrade-Pri?tina dialogue would be continued after the upcoming elections in Serbia were completed and new government was formed, but in the meantime, negotiators will have talks with Cooper either via video link or at informal meetings.
