Pristina’s plan is to erase the border with Albania by March next year and to abolish tariffs on Serbian goods so they could request the continuation of the dialogue with Belgrade, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said.

Speaking at a press conference, he said that Pristina will erase the border with Albania in several phases which will last until March 2019.

“They will do this by March and when they do it, when they erase the border, then they will lift the tariffs and say ‘we're ready to talk, but from a different position, from a position of united Albania and Kosovo’,” Vucic noted.

The Serbian President added that they warned the international community of this scenario before, but that they failed to react.

“Whenever we speak to someone and request a reaction we get the same answer – We’re surprised, we couldn’t se that happening. We’ll try to react in line with our capacity,” he noted and added that they always “get a big nothing.”

Vucic asked what the international community’s reaction would be if he were to announce the erasing of the border with the Bosnian semi-autonomous, Serb dominated entity of Republika Srpska.
