Dear journalists
Honored media:
Research Institute of Development and
European Affairs (RIDEA) is pleased to invite you to participate in the
conference - Vox Populi on the ‘Grand Finale’ between Kosovo and Serbia– (Wednesday,
20 February 2019, 09:30 a.m) at Swiss Diamond Hotel Prishtina (Conference
room:Dyar)
The poll that will be presented at the
beginning of this conference gives answers to some of the major dilemmas that
characterize the final phase of the dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia.
How many percent of citizens support correction of
borders with Serbia? Do they accept the formation of the Association of Serb
Majority Municipalities in Kosovo in exchange for de facto recognition from
Serbia? What are the sensational data in this regard? For which ethnicity in
Kosovo, Trepça is the unsurpassed red line? What is the 'Vox Populi' for Ujman
/ Gazivoda? And, for Zvecan, Zubin Potok and Leposavic, is there room for
compromise based on the ‘Vox Populi’? How many percent of citizens said that
Trepca and Ujmani should remain within Kosovo? What is the 'Vox Populi' about the Presheva Valley? How many
percent of Kosovo's citizens at any cost and any price want the Presevo Valley
part of Kosovo?
How many percent of citizens expressed
that Kosovo should join Albania?
What is surprising in this regard, how is
the ‘Vox Populi’ of Kosovo shifting
towards the eventual union of Kosovo with Albania? These are just some of the
questions that have received the precise answer from the 'Vox Populi' of Kosovo.
In addition to the panelists that you can
find on the agenda below, other participants will be international accredited
diplomats in Kosovo, Kosovo's institutional officials, civil society activists,
publicists and representatives from the academic world.
