EU Special Representative for Belgrade-Pristina Dialogue Miroslav Lajcak says that as Belgrade-Pristina dialogue continues today, mutual financial claims will be discussed, but not the Community of Serb Municipalities (ZSO) - while the director of Serbia's Office for Kosovo and Metohija Marko Djuric replied to Lajcak's statement by saying that the first item on the agenda during the meeting today between Belgrade and Pristina delegations in Brussels will be the community of municipalities with a Serb majority.

"President (Aleksandar) Vucic and Prime Minister (Avdullah) Hoti agreed their negotiators will follow up on settlement of mutual financial claims and arrangements for non-majority community. Both topics are very complex. That's why we will discuss financial claims tomorrow (Thursday) and arrangements for non-majority community in coming days," Lajcak posted on Twitter.

Djuric then also took to Twitter and wrote the following:

"Thank you for hosting the meeting. First topic on the agenda tomorrow (Thursday) will be the Community of Serb majority municipalities. At least for the Serbian side. The one agreed under EU facilitation seven and a half years ago. This one," Djuric wrote, linking to the Brussels Agreement reached in 2013.
