The European Union’s special envoy for the Kosovo–Serbia dialogue, Peter Sørensen, is visiting Prishtina on April 15, where he is expected to meet with Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti, according to a source in Brussels cited by Radio Free Europe.
The visit follows Sørensen’s trip to Belgrade on April 9, where he held discussions with Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić on advancing the EU-facilitated normalization process between Kosovo and Serbia.
During his meeting in Belgrade, Sørensen reportedly discussed key issues in the dialogue process as well as progress related to legislative developments in Kosovo affecting foreign nationals.
Diplomatic sources indicate that intensive efforts are underway to organize a new high-level round of talks between Kosovo and Serbia. According to these reports, preparations are being coordinated with multiple international stakeholders, including the United States.
Vučić has expressed readiness to travel to Brussels for a potential meeting within the dialogue framework, while Kosovo’s willingness to engage at the same level has not yet been confirmed.
The last high-level political meeting between the two sides took place in September 2023, shortly before the armed attack in Banjska, which resulted in the death of a Kosovo police officer and further escalated tensions between the two countries.
Since then, the dialogue process has remained effectively frozen at the political leadership level.
The European Union has repeatedly stated its intention to restart high-level talks as soon as conditions allow, with renewed diplomatic engagement expected in the coming months.
