Russia is trying to derail negotiations between Serbia and Kosovo, an unnamed senior EU official warned on February 24, ahead of talks that Brussels hopes will lead to "de facto recognition" between the former foes. On February 27, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell will host Serbia's President Aleksandar Vucic and Kosovo's Prime Minister Albin Kurti seeking to help normalize ties. Both sides, the EU official told AFP, have accepted in principle the terms of an unpublished EU plan that would lead to their re-establishing links more than two decades after they at war.
