President Hashim Thaci says the idea on land swap, or as he refers to it as the “correction of borders” is the only solution to finally end the conflict between Kosovo and Serbia. But he says that there will be no partition of the northern part of the country. According to Thaci Kosovo will never discuss with Serbia on the Gazvode Lake or Mitrovica town, Gazeta Express reports.
Thaci considers the only way to solve problems between Kosovo and Serbia is his idea on the exchange of territories, or as he refers to it the “correction of borders.” Attending a debate on Wednesday organised by the Kosovo Democratic Institute, Thaci said this process will mark the end of a long conflict between the two countries. But Thaci says that there will be no partition of the north inhabited mainly by Serbs during this process. “Mutual recognition can be followed with an accord on delineation of the border between Kosovo and Serbia. But I want to emphasise that there will be no partition of the northern part,” Thaci said. He also said that Kosovo will never discuss with Serbia on the Gazivode Lake or the north of the country. “This process will mark the end of a long conflict between Kosovo and Serbia, and not as some say incite new conflicts. The end of conflict means setting clearly the border between the two countries,” Thaci said.
President Hashim Thaci will meet his Serbian counterpart Aleksandar Vucic on 7 September as part of the EU-facilitated dialogue in Brussels, when he is expected to present his idea on the exchange of territories.
