answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/09/2018 answer text <p>As we have always been clear, normalising relations between Serbia and Kosovo is crucial for the security, stability and prosperity of both countries and the wider region. The Government believes that this should be on the basis of recognition of independent sovereign nations within their current borders. We believe that calls for re-drawing national borders could be de-stabilising. We continue to support the EU-facilitated dialogue with a view to a comprehensive and sustainable solution that benefits both countries.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 20/09/2018 15:39:51 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2015 answer text <p>The British Government is a strong supporter of Serbia and Kosovo’s respective EU paths, which are dependent on full normalisation of relations between the two countries. Progress requires full implementation of all agreements reached, including the Brussels Agreement of 19 April 2013, and is managed through the EU facilitated Dialogue. We make regular representations to encourage both governments to fully implement all agreements. Following a successful Dialogue meeting in August, the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend the Member for Runnymede and Weybridge (Mr Hammond), issued a press statement on 26 August urging both Serbia and Kosovo to maintain this positive momentum. The Foreign Secretary also made clear that completing the implementation of all their agreements will be an important step towards normalising relations between the two countries and increasing regional stability and security.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 21/12/2015 14:42:55 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/11/2014 answer text The UK has been a strong supporter of the EU-facilitated Dialogue between Serbia and Kosovo, which has made significant progress over the last 18 months, including the historic 19 April 2013 agreement on beginning to normalise relations. The UK also helped ensure that the negotiating framework for Serbia’s EU accession process requires comprehensive normalisation of relations before Serbia can join the EU. Elections in Serbia and delays in forming the new Government of Kosovo have slowed the pace of implementation of the 19 April agreement this year, but some recent progress has been made on Integrated Border Management, Telecoms and Energy. In addition to the EU-facilitated Dialogue, Her Majesty's Government is also working on building better relationships, through promoting inter-ethnic commerce, encouraging more inter-ethnic dialogue, confidence building measures, and encouraging greater action from the government of Kosovo in recruiting ethnic-minorities into state institutions. answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 17/11/2014 15:39:40 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
