MOSCOW EU High Representative Catherine Ashton believes that one should not be happy about the Belgrade-Pristina agreement in advance. “We should not be so happy about it in advance. History is not over yet. Both states are still at the crossroads but two brave men have already chosen a path of peace,” she told Moscow-based daily Kommersant. We should not celebrate just yet, EU’s Ashton says Ashton said she had in the past six months witnessed Serbia and Kosovo PMs Ivica Dacic and Hashim turn from politicians to peacekeepers, noting that they knew how to take chances and that they were not afraid of it. “On October 19 Thaci and Dacic came into my office in the new headquarters of the European Committee for Foreign Affairs. Neither politician knew how news of their meeting would be accepted in their countries,” she stressed. Ashton pointed out that the both prime ministers’ job was to “help dozens of thousands of Serbs who live in northern Kosovo”. According to her, both of them were “ready for a constructive dialogue”. “Now, Serbia and Kosovo are striving to join the EU. A process that will allow them to achieve their goal has started with the agreement which was reached last week,” the EU high representative said. Catherine Ashton (Beta/AP) Beta

Snažno nevreme stiže u Srbiju

U većem delu Srbije će danas pre podne biti pretežno sunčano, toplo, suvo i vetrovito, uz olujnu košavu u Beogradu, na jugu Banata, u Pomoravlju i donjem Podunavlju, a već u poslepodnevnim satima biće kratkotrajne kiše ili pljuskova.
