EU discord on Kosovo issue persists, intensifies 14.12.2007, 14.44
BRUSSELS, December 14 (Itar-Tass) - Cyprus, Greece, Slovakia and Romania continue to press for the settlement of the future Kosovo status within the framework of the United Nations, Brussels sources said on the eve of the beginning of the second day of work of the EU winter summit. Thus, European sources noted, the number of countries doubting the necessity of settling the Kosovo problem in a narrower format that includes Brussels, Washington and Pristina has grown. An unexpectedly compromise variant of the final document of the summit was issued as a result of this. Itar-Tass learnt from official sources that although the document notes that the negotiating process between Belgrade and Pristina is fully exhausted and reached a stalemate, however it does not contain a proposal to support the possible unilateral proclamation of Kosovo independence. http://itar-tass.com/eng/level2.html?NewsID=12180162&PageNum=0 Serbian News Network - SNN news@antic.org http://www.antic.org/
