BELGRADE Aleksandar Vulin says that "the outlines of a solution for Kosovo will certainly appear" at the next meeting in Brussels set for March 4.

Kosovo office chief: Outlines of solution at next meeting According to Vulin, the government Platform and the Resolution adopted by the national parliament offer the answer and solution to most of the problems in Kosovo. The international community and Pristina now need to understand this, he added. He said he believes things are moving in the right direction and noted that the Serbian government has shown readiness for dialogue and compromise. "We will work on this, we are truly committed to peace as an idea, peace as the solution and surely we are not alone in this," said Vulin. He added Wednesday's round of EU-sponsored Kosovo negotiations in Brussels was "genuinely tough, as it tackled topics relevant particularly to the Kosovo Serbs". Even though no agreement was reached, things are headed in the right direction, he said. "I think there is growing understanding of something we have been saying all along - a solution, especially a durable one, cannot be found without the consent of Serbia and the Kosovo Serbs," said Vulin.
