Borrell after the meeting with Vucic and Kurti: Both bear full responsibility

Josep Borrell, after the meeting with Kurti and Vučič in Brussels, said that both bear full responsibility for the failure of the negotiations as well as for any escalation of the situation in the North of Kosovo.

"Both bear full responsibility for the failure of the talks today and for any escalation and violence that may occur on the ground. We submitted a proposal that President Vucic accepted today, while Prime Minister Kurti did not. For the sake of transparency, we put forward a proposal that could avoid this dangerous situation. President Vucic accepted it, but unfortunately Prime Minister Kurti did not. I expect Kosovo to stop the next phase of fines and Serbia to stop issuing new license plates", said Borrell.
