Kosovo, Serbia Close to Deal but Questions Remain
By NEBI QENA Associated Press
PRISTINA, Kosovo April 22, 2013 (AP)
Kosovo's prime minister summed up sentiment on both sides: "Don't expect us to start loving each other." Hashim Thaci spoke days after he reached a deal with his Serbian counterpart to normalize ties — a potentially historic breakthrough that could bury an era of conflict.
The tentative agreement brokered last week by the European Union sets out rules on how Kosovo and Serbia will live side-by-side as separate states, the first step in the long process for both to win membership in the bloc.
While there's no doubt a turning point is at hand, Thaci's comment captures the prevalent feeling that an end to the acrimony is a long way off. Belgrade insists the territory is an integral part of Serbia, while Pristina says it will never be ruled by Belgrade again.
