FUTURE OF THE BELGRADE-PRISTINA DIALOGUE

On July 4, 2019 in Belgrade, Serbia, the Council for Inclusive Governance (CIG) convened a group of experts and politicians to discuss the current state of the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue. Participants came up with a number of suggestions and conclusions on the dialogue and on what should be done, including short-term confidence building measures, to resume it.

In the short term, the international community, the governments and the civil society should focus on measures that build confidence. Following is a brief report.
