She also stated the two sides will have difficulties in agreeing on the agenda. Albright calls for speedy start talks Serbia will insist on discussing Kosovo's status and territory, which is something Kosovo officials will reject, Albright noted in her article for The Wall Street Journal, which she wrote together with James O'Brien, former presidential envoy for the Balkans. According to the article, the talks should begin as soon as possible now that both Belgrade and Pristina agree on them, otherwise it could be a missed opportunity. The EU, which will act as a supervisor, should set the agenda, which will involve trade, borders and law enforcement, Albright and O'Brien say, adding that those are some of the topics the two sides need to discuss. According to the article, some sensitive issues should also be discussed, like the Serbs' right to a self-government, especially in the north of Kosovo, and protection of historical monuments and Christian Orthodox churches.
