Top Serbian state officials on Wednesday after returning from Brussels from yet another round of failed negotiations with Pristina, said that in the next few days they would have to "make some very difficult decisions" about Kosovo.
"We didn't achieve any compromise but we are resolute that we are moving towards them. This round of negotiations surpassed all our negative expectations and the situation is quite difficult", President Tomislav Nikolic's adviser Marko Djuric said after the president met with the delegation.
The state delegation informed President Nikolic of the progress of the negotiations in Brussels and their common assessment was for Belgrade to persist on its intentions to tend toward a compromise "no matter how difficult it may be and if possible", Djuric said.
He added that the state's officials would keep the Serbian public informed of every next step they take to resolve the question of Kosovo.
The Serbian and Kosovo delegations ended this last round of negotiations in Brussels after midnight Tuesday without coming to any agreement - standing steadfast in their previous positions on the question of the power the community of Serb communities in Kosovo would have.
Pristina insists that the union of predominantly Serb municipalities be under the framework of Kosovo's constitutional legislation whereas Belgrade is seeking executive authority.
