Kosovo and Serbia leaders meet in Brussels for normalization talks.

The leaders of Serbia and Kosovo have resumed talks in Brussels to normalise ties and implement an EU 11-point normalisation plan. The EU proposal covers the normalisation of relations between the two countries and their future path towards peace and EU membership. A sticking point has been Belgrade’s insistence that Pristina implement a 2013 agreement to establish an association of northern Kosovo municipalities with Serb-majority populations. Kosovo declared its independence from Serbia in 2008, which Serbia does not recognise.
