University professor Arben Fetoshi indicated that despite the fact that Sweden took over the presidency of the Council of the European Union, no progress could be expected in terms of important processes for Kosovo, TV1 reports.

According to his words, the international community left all processes to fate and events in the dialogue process with Serbia.

"It is an agenda that has slowed down and almost blocked Kosovo's development for more than ten years, and which, in recent months, I believe, has received the right priority in terms of its finalization, to move towards unblocking the process, starting with the fate of the application for the European Union, then the application for membership in the Council of Europe, and the 'Achilles' heel' for Kosovo's integration into the EU, i.e., the non-recognition of the five EU countries," Fetoshi said.

Fetoshi emphasized that Kosovo did not receive any concrete answer from the Swedish ambassador about what could happen with its integration processes.

"It shows that the US and the EU are the factors on which the dynamics and development of the dialogue process with Serbia will depend in the coming weeks and months," Fetoshi added.

Speaking about Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti's conditions for the Community of Serb-majority Municipalities formation, Fetoshi stated that it was all just a play on words.

"I don't see any change, it's all Prime Minister Kurti's play on words. I understand that in his political discourse, the Association or 'Community' is one of the most important causes, and it is not easy to move from the position of 'it cannot pass' to the position of 'it can pass'", Fetoshi stated.

According to him, it is just a ploy by Kurti to get out of his current position.

"I think it's a ruse by the Prime Minister to get out of his current position. I've seen a change in Kurti's attitude regarding the CSM since yesterday, and I want to believe that it's a positive change," Fetoshi concluded.
