Confidential Letter Reveals Secret Talks On Partition Of Kosovo

Former EU facilitator of Kosovo-Serbia technical dialogue in 2011-12, Robert Cooper, who was one of the speakers at the Belgrade Security Forum (BSF) held on 17-18 October, in his capacity as ECFR Council Member, wrote a “private and confidential” letter based on his study trip to Serbia’s capital.

According to Cooper, Belgrade’s idea is to regain disputed territory of northern Kosovo in exchange for Serbia recognising Kosovo as a state.
