"After talking to the two Prime Ministers – Prime Minister Gruevski and Prime Minister Papandreou – I can confirm that the discussions on solving the issue that has been raised by the honourable Member are indeed well advanced. I hope that the leaders will use the window of opportunity to solve these issues, thus allowing that country and Skopje to start their accession negotiations.
To answer the first question, a couple of weeks ago, I was in the northern part of Kosovo, opening some EU offices there and talking about the programmes and how to make sure that whatever we do for the citizens of Kosovo – and, of course, the citizens of other countries in the region – is shared by everybody and that we do not have isolated places where the citizens do not have these possibilities.
You are absolutely right to make the point that before the ICJ ruling, we should avoid any acts that would make the situation more violent or even explosive. With that in mind, after that tragic incident, Baroness Ashton, the High Representative and Vice-President of the Commission, had telephone conversations with leaders both in Pristina and Belgrade and called on them to continue the policy of restraint, particularly as we are moving ever closer to the expected ICJ ruling."@en1
