Dacic: Form ZSO - or my signature's off Brussels agreement
Ivica Dacic says he is prepared to take his signature off the Brussels agreement unless Pristina forms the Community of Serb Municipalities (ZSO) in Kosovo.

Dacic said that he heard about "a new version" - that the ZSO will be "a part of the package of a (future) legally binding agreement" that the EU wants Belgrade to sign with Pristina.
"That's the height of insolence... what does that formulation mean? There's nobody alive who knows. The interpretation that it should contain Kosovo's independence is unacceptable to us. That is not one of the conditions under which we signed the Brussels agreement at the time," he stressed.
According to him, the fact that President Aleksandar Vucic is demonstrating his desire for compromise "is not our weakness."
"He should clearly tell the EU what it is that we want, and how far we can go... whoever wants to can come here, but they won't get recognition of Kosovo from us. No Serb exists that would sign that," Dacic said, stressing that Serbia's position is clear, and that he should clearly present it to everyone.
The minister then explained what he meant when he said that Serbia was not going to commit harakiri for the sake of the EU - to which visiting European Commission President Jean Claude Juncker reacted by saying that the EU "will not ask Dacic to do."
"I was not talking about myself, but about 'a historic harikiri' of the Serb people and the Serb state, because the EU keeps persuading us," he said.
"Every statement directed toward us always says that Serbia should reach a legally binding agreement, that is, solve the problem of Kosovo before entering the EU. On the other hand, they are not telling this to Kosovo. Why don't they tell Pristina that it should reach a historic agreement with Belgrade?," Dacic asked.
He had another question: why don't EU representatives go to Madrid, "and tell them they can't use European funds until they solve the problem of Catalonia."
The minister also recalled that Slovenia and Croatia jointed the EU without solving their border dispute, that is ongoing to this day.
"That's double standards. Do they in the EU think our people are so thrilled because we got that carrot, while it remains somewhere far away...," said Dacic.
Kosovo, he pointed out, has not completed its independence and will never become a member of the UN - and described suggestions coming from Pristina that Belgrade should tell Russia to let Kosovo in the UN as "humiliating and insulting."
Serbia should be conducting a reasonable policy and keep a cool head, the minister said.
"I would be ashamed if we, after everything we have achieved, tomorrow had to tell the countries that have not recognized Kosovo - 'sorry, but we recognized it after all'," Dacic concluded.
"No unresolved issues?"
If it is impossible to join the EU with unresolved bilateral issues, how did Slovenia and Croatia do it, Dacic asked during the same talk show.
"Why, they're still counting fish in the Bay of Piran," the Serbian foreign minister said, referring to the border dispute between Croatia and Slovenia, both EU member-states.
His comments came after European Commission President Jean Claude Juncker, who was visiting Belgrade, said that countries that have unresolved bilateral issues cannot join the EU.
Speaking about the problem of Kosovo, Dacic said that Pristina was "buying independence votes" - and that "everything that is bought can be sold again."
He announced that he would soon travel to another country which he will plead with to withdraw its recognition of Kosovo, but did not wish to reveal its name - to avoid "those from Kosovo immediately complaining to the Americans."
take out your calculator and see if its possible for the US to pay off its debt? GDP needs to grow at more than 20% to even have a possibility for that debt to be paid down;
(Jugoslavija, 1 March 2018 18:06)
Yeah, according to the calculator, the US has more total assets than total liabilities, and therefore is able to pay its debt (whether the GDP grows at 20% or not). That is also confirmed by China or Russia (unless you consider the Chinese or the Russians idiots who don't know basic math).
(icj1, 3 March 2018 20:57)
What you don't want to understand is that it doesn't matter how much debt a country carries, what maters is the ability to pay that debt. The USA has that unique ability.
(The Count of Kosova, 1 March 2018 02:35) # Co
You need to change your name , you obviously can't count. Clown of Kosovo is so much better. Did you take the Pristina Economics course from ICJ? Its called the law of diminishing returns, take out your calculator and see if its possible for the US to pay off its debt? GDP needs to grow at more than 20% to even have a possibility for that debt to be paid down; the US Reserve will of course not tell its gullible populous that the road to bankruptcy is going to be accelerated with rising interest rates. I hate to say it, but would rather take the current Albania low debt any day over the USA smoke and mirrors economy.
(Jugoslavija, 1 March 2018 18:06)
Well, back to the future boy, you can’t get away from 1999 like a broken record LOL.
There is no point in showing you why you’re talking through your hat, but simply say that the US is kept afloat by the petro dollar. The outcome of that little tussle in Syria will decide the fate of the US.
Note that delegations from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait are now going direct to Moscow not Washington. Even Israel is by passing Washington and going direct to Moscow. Russia has become the only power in the Middle East. Moscow will be the only power supplying gas and oil to Europe. Sorry but it’s true. I told you that Moscow will rule Europe.
The US is not capable of repaying that debt and it only pays interest on the current $20.6 trillion. Money is lent to China, Russia and EU. But not one has a horrendous debt like the US.
You need to break that 1999, cold war or Soviet Union cycle. The Soviet Union is gone; your stuck in the past.
Its February 2018 not 1999.
(sj, 1 March 2018 11:40)
Hey Captain Obvious,
Yes, in 1999 the US debt was $4 trillion, if you recall that was the year NATO spent a bit of pocket change bombing a sorry ass country called Serbia.
What you don't want to understand is that it doesn't matter how much debt a country carries, what maters is the ability to pay that debt. The USA has that unique ability. That is why most any country would gladly loan the US any amount, knowing the loan is backed by the highest debt rating, that of the USA.
btw, The USA has the unique ability to feed the rest of the world. In fact, during the Cold War the US feed the Soviet Union. In case you don't know, let me edify you, the rump Soviet Union is now known as Russia. And yes, Putin was one of those poor Russians that the USA kept from starving.

Mr Vucic is correct when he says “in any negotiation both sides have to feel they have won”
Assuming in 2025 the EU still exists here are the options
1. Northern Kosovo to Serbia
2. The Southern terretory to Albania
No other changes
This would allow Serbia to join without having to deal with recognition issue
The EU would like it because it would allow Serbia to join,which is in their interest, and isolate the Albanians which is also in the interest of the EU
(Sam D, 28 February 2018 04:03)
Wishful thinking buddy! Kosovo is still within the Constitution therefore it would be treason to give it way. Back to the old formula, greater autonomy short of independence. We get to control our borders and resources and the albos get go play in the traffic

.....This court was established in 2015 to hear the allegations contained in the so-called ‘Marty report’, published by the Council of Europe in late 2010. After some hesitation, the main Western powers chose to take it seriously. In September 2011 the EU established a Special Investigative Task Force (SITF) to conduct a ‘full-scale investigation’ into the report. Its conclusions were unveiled on 29 July 2014.
SITF declared that its findings were ‘largely consistent’ with the Marty report (including on the claim that the KLA financed itself also by harvesting organs from selected prisoners, who were murdered in the process, to sell them on the international black market: SITF found evidence of ‘a few’ such cases, but failed to identify the culprits)....

Since when did you become the spokeswoman for all of the people icj1? Just because you aren't unaware of something that is obvious to others, doesn't mean they are as ignorant as you dear. I think you should thank sj for helping to educate you on yet another subject. I see the education of icj1 continues.

The simple fact is that Kosovo* is an illegal narco entity that's run by gangsters and organ traffickers.

That's a "fact" that few people, if any, are aware about, dear!

Wrong again dear. In fact Kosovo is known to be a major exporter of narcotics even by the Australian Federal Police let alone the constabulary in Europe.
You should read up on the subjects before posting because it makes you look ludicrous.

Croatia did not resolve border issues with Slovenia, Bosnia, Montenegro or Serbia yet it was accepted into the EU. The most difficult is with Serbia because the real borders are not on the Danube. Those are artificial ones that Tito drew up and are not internationally recognised.
I find it amazing that people think that joining the EU there is an endless supply of money. Those days have faded. The EU economy has not improved so Brussels continues to print money plus the UK leaving is creating big problems – too many asking for handouts not enough putting into the fund. Croatia puts into the EU fund 1 billion Euros and takes out 3 billion
(sj, 28 February 2018 10:17)
That’s the problem, people like you don’t see they only listen to what they are being told, lap it up and repeat it ad nauseum. Today, the US has only three combat ready brigades – 15,000 troops. The US Navy has 278 ships, but it needs 355.
The US Air Force needs 1200 fighters but only has 923 and most equipment is too old so cannibalisation of aircraft to make others airworthy is a regular practise. It's short of 1000 pilots and 3000 maintenance workers. Pilot experience is at historic lows. As far as the US being a superpower that was finished in Iraq.
It only bombs small defenceless nations. Why don’t they try a real challenge like Russia or China LOL?????
In 1999, the US debt was $4 trillion, today at this moment its $20.6 trillion and $21.5 trillion by December. The US economy $19 trillion but $12 trillion of that is printed money – the economy is bloated. Trump is handing out tax cuts using borrowed money – that’s like cutting one’s nose off to spite one’s face.
One more thing. China is the World No1 economy and has been since September 2014. Bet they don’t mention that one.
All this information is there but you must know where to look for it.

Now what are the rules for Albanians who have committed crimes against Serbs? They need to leave?
What there are no Albanians with blood on their hands?

They are the bad examples. That's why the EU does'n need any more open conflicts. So you can thank Slovenia and Croatia for the stricter entry criteria.

Well, one can go through life asking why why why all the time, or you can just get on with it. If you think that EU is going to care much about some confused and hormonal fatso FM who thinks that his words should be taken seriously, you obviously don’t know how the EU works. Instead of trying to dance around recognition, the only thing you can do is to just accept it. You’re in no position to bargain, there’s simply no room for it. Furthermore, your comparisons are faulty. Croatia-Slovenia border dispute is over technical slivers of territory, not an entire region that most of EU considers a country. And there was no genocide in Catalonia, so Madrid cannot he treated like a genocide perpetrator. But Belgrade can.

I know there are those who are going to point to the Croatian/Slovenian border issue. The difference is that the disputed land is 50 to 100 meters either way and involve 35 families plus the water boundary.
While in Kosovo the border line is a difference of an extra 10,900 km2 land that would be part of the EU and an extra 2 million citizens not 35 families.
Those extra citizens would mean extra Members of European Parliament for Serbia ( more then the 6 minimum) plus extra funds from the EU.
The differences between an internal border within the EU is a lot different between an external one that involves 2 million people.

I know there are those who are going to point to the Croatian/Slovenian border issue. The difference is that the disputed land is 50 to 100 meters either way and involve 35 families plus the water boundary.
While in Kosovo the border line is a difference of an extra 10,900 km2 land that would be part of the EU and an extra 2 million citizens not 35 families.
Those extra citizens would mean extra Members of European Parliament for Serbia ( more then the 6 minimum) plus extra funds from the EU.
The differences between an internal border within the EU is a lot different between an external one that involves 2 million people.

The US is not capable of repaying that debt and it only pays interest on the current $20.6 trillion. Money is lent to China, Russia and EU. But not one has a horrendous debt like the US.

The EU economy has not improved so Brussels continues to print money plus the UK leaving is creating big problems – too many asking for handouts not enough putting into the fund.

Hey Captain Obvious,
Yes, in 1999 the US debt was $4 trillion, if you recall that was the year NATO spent a bit of pocket change bombing a sorry ass country called Serbia.
What you don't want to understand is that it doesn't matter how much debt a country carries, what maters is the ability to pay that debt. The USA has that unique ability. That is why most any country would gladly loan the US any amount, knowing the loan is backed by the highest debt rating, that of the USA.
btw, The USA has the unique ability to feed the rest of the world. In fact, during the Cold War the US feed the Soviet Union. In case you don't know, let me edify you, the rump Soviet Union is now known as Russia. And yes, Putin was one of those poor Russians that the USA kept from starving.

(Jugoslavija, 1 March 2018 18:06)
Yeah, according to the calculator, the US has more total assets than total liabilities, and therefore is able to pay its debt (whether the GDP grows at 20% or not). That is also confirmed by China or Russia (unless you consider the Chinese or the Russians idiots who don't know basic math).

.....This court was established in 2015 to hear the allegations contained in the so-called ‘Marty report’, published by the Council of Europe in late 2010. After some hesitation, the main Western powers chose to take it seriously. In September 2011 the EU established a Special Investigative Task Force (SITF) to conduct a ‘full-scale investigation’ into the report. Its conclusions were unveiled on 29 July 2014.
SITF declared that its findings were ‘largely consistent’ with the Marty report (including on the claim that the KLA financed itself also by harvesting organs from selected prisoners, who were murdered in the process, to sell them on the international black market: SITF found evidence of ‘a few’ such cases, but failed to identify the culprits)....

However they should prepare themselves and become accustom to following a new way of life one which demands from them that they follow Kosovan laws and help protect the interest of The Republic Of Kosova!
If they can't get accustomed to these new ways of life in Kosova then they are free to leave if they choose so, it is up to them to choose!

Don't forget Dacic was born in Kosovo. I guess according to the hard line Kosovo Albanians on this board, that makes him indigenous.

You guys are not indigenous to the presevo valley. Many of those families are from eastern kosovo, who originated from Ljume.

That’s the problem, people like you don’t see they only listen to what they are being told, lap it up and repeat it ad nauseum. Today, the US has only three combat ready brigades – 15,000 troops. The US Navy has 278 ships, but it needs 355.
The US Air Force needs 1200 fighters but only has 923 and most equipment is too old so cannibalisation of aircraft to make others airworthy is a regular practise. It's short of 1000 pilots and 3000 maintenance workers. Pilot experience is at historic lows. As far as the US being a superpower that was finished in Iraq.
It only bombs small defenceless nations. Why don’t they try a real challenge like Russia or China LOL?????
In 1999, the US debt was $4 trillion, today at this moment its $20.6 trillion and $21.5 trillion by December. The US economy $19 trillion but $12 trillion of that is printed money – the economy is bloated. Trump is handing out tax cuts using borrowed money – that’s like cutting one’s nose off to spite one’s face.
One more thing. China is the World No1 economy and has been since September 2014. Bet they don’t mention that one.

You see, if after all these decades they are still learning then they are incapable of learning.

take out your calculator and see if its possible for the US to pay off its debt? GDP needs to grow at more than 20% to even have a possibility for that debt to be paid down;

Yeah, according to the calculator, the US has more total assets than total liabilities, and therefore is able to pay its debt (whether the GDP grows at 20% or not). That is also confirmed by China or Russia (unless you consider the Chinese or the Russians idiots who don't know basic math).
