"Serbian President Boris Tadic and Kosovo Prime Minister Hashim Thaci are now ready to start the dialogue," she said answering questions of MPs in the European Parliament (EP) foreign affairs committee. "Tadic, Thaci ready for calm dialogue" As regards the topics, the EU believes they should focus on practical issues to make life easier for the people, Ashton said. What other topics will be discussed and what will be achieved depends on how successful the start of the dialogue will be, she said, according to Beta news agency. In Belgrade, Serbian Deputy PM Bozidar Djelic said that since the submission of the resolution on Kosovo in cooperation with the EU Serbia is ready for the dialogue, while early elections are expected in Kosovo. Djelic also said that one of the first topics of the talks could be customs. He also said that he believed there would not be "such a great asymmetry of sides" in the dialogue which he said would be conducted under the EU auspices and with the valid UNSCR 1244. "For the first time it is obvious that European spirit is expected from Pristina too, and that means compromise," said Djelic. Catherine Ashton (Tanjug, file)
