According to Stevan Ristic, the director of the weekly magazine Vreme, President of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic and former president of Kosovo Hashim Thaci could have reached an agreement, but now this seems unlikely. He commented on the recent statement by former U.S. envoy Richard Grenell that Belgrade and Pristina were close to a "final agreement."

Grenell, a close associate of former President and current U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump, recently stated in an interview how Serbia and Kosovo were on the verge of achieving a so-called "final agreement," which, among other things, envisaged the abolition of the Kosovo Specialist Chambers.
Ristic told N1 that this is related to a much larger plan.

"I think that package was supposed to include the partition of Kosovo. Efforts were made in that direction, and Grenell was responsible for it. This resulted in President Vucic's visit to Donald Trump," he said.

However, Ristic explained that this engagement came too late, adding that he believes Vucic and Thaci had a decent relationship.

"I believe they were representatives of Serbia and Kosovo who could reach an agreement, which is not the case now. I think that with the current Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti, serious discussions cannot be held about anything, let alone about the Community of Serb Municipalities, not to mention partition," he stressed.

Ristic also assessed that some other countries managed to block the agreement between Vucic and Thaci, and that Trump was no longer "strong enough to pin that idea to himself" at that time.
