Brussels: Agreements will not be changed

Well, its too late now. You signed the dotted line with the conditions above. Its not our problem that you're not honest with your people and dont let them know what the deal is. I feel bad for the K-Serbs in northern Kosovo; the people who supposedly take care of them dont tell them the truthnor anything at all. Thats probably because what they agree to is nothing to brag about, contrary to what they claim. And now they wanna change what they agreed to. Mind boggling...

If Serbian constitution is a problem when it comes to Kosovo then change. We know it was a cock up of Koshtunica.....have to fixed and "free" yourelf....

The Serbs in KiM will take matters into their own hands and alternative routes are still open. KFOR would be exceeding its mandate to close them.

This clearly shows that you don't have a clue what KFOR mandate is!

Brussels says agreements will not be changed. May I ask, who died and left them boss? I don't get it, why does Brussels think they have the right to tell other sovereign countries what they must do?

I'd say that it's time to recognize the Flemish region of Belgium as an independent nation as well then.

How detailed was the agreement? Is there room for interpretation? It seems there is so unless all technical details are clearly defined, it can still be under negotiation, especially if there are disagreements over status neutrality.

Besides, the barricades can resurface quite quickly (in fact, most were never removed), so it will be extremely difficult (and expensive) for get workers to those customs points.

Not exactly. This was not some sort of business agreement or something that can legally penalize Serbia from withdrawing from this entire agreement. And what is this truth exactly? Where are Albanians to enforce this truth on the Serbs of Northern Kosovo?? You say Serbia's government is not telling them the truth but Serbs of Mitro are not listening to those fifth columnists.

This entire elite aristocratic class (politicians, domestic tycoons, NGO "experts") have no legitmacy in most of what they say, Kosovo related or not. So eventually, these stupid agreements with terrorist institutions become obsolete. These were biased negotiations from the very beginning and the representatives of these occupational institutions are full of terrorists for one, as well as criminals who have probably stolen more from Albanians than anybody else.

North Kosovo, Serbian enclaves south of the Ibar & Monasteries must remain fully functional to Serbia, with a referendum for the Bosniak and Gorani populations. To me, that's still injustice but for the sake of peace both sides should be willing to agree.

The Serbs in Kosovo are not going to live in Kosovastan and cannot possibly survive the current WWII era ethnic ghetto system that has been imposed to them. Either Serbia is preserved where Serbs and Monasteries are located south of the Ibar or peace becomes impossible.

Not correct Kenny. These are not formal written agreements in the true sense of the word. They are points where agreement has been reached between Tadic and Pristina and stated in letter format. The idea was simple; reach agreement then a little down the track start implementing after they sign official documents to formalize these agreements which would mean a technical recognition of an “separate Kosovo.” What is interesting that Albanians keep on talking about Serbian politicians not being honest with their people. Well I recall one Albanian negotiator stating that they were forced by the west to agree to many conditions in those negotiations.
Experience tells me that all of this is going nowhere and status quo will continue.

Always the same with Serbs who do not live in Kosovo, one minute they paint a picture of Serbs in Kosovo with the strongest ties with Serbia and free from Albanian control.
Then they turn the picture around in their next sentence and paint the picture of Albanians forcing the Serbs to live in barb wire ghettos.

So which picture do you want the world to believe.

“The agreement is anti-Constitutional and against vital interests of the Serbian people". Serb National Council of Northern Kosovo President Milan Ivanović told Danas.

Yes, but the people "represented" by Mr. Milan are not more than 1-2% of the Serbian electorate and, unfortunately, 1-2% can't dictate what the 98% does.
