Lajčák denounces reintroduction of customs duties on Serbian products

02/06/2020 (Agence Europe)On Sunday 31 May, Miroslav Lajčák, the EU Special Representative for the Belgrade-Pristina Dialogue, expressed his disappointment at the new reciprocity measures introduced by Kosovo’s interim government on imports from Serbia. “These unilateral actions undermine the resumption of dialogue and should be removed immediately”, he said on Twitter. He stressed that the EU expects both Kosovo and Serbia to implement and respect past agreements. The previous day, the Kosovo government adopted measures prohibiting the use of documents for importing agricultural and industrial products containing any names other than ‘Republic of Kosovo’. Customs duties on Serbian and Bosnian products were introduced in November 2018 and abolished on 1 April (see EUROPE 12459/20). (CG)
