"Together with our teams we discussed dialogue matters in detail, shared assessments of the current situation, developments of the last months and expectations for the coming period. And we also made sure to align necessary next steps and priorities," said Lajcak.
He added that he will visit Alpbach, Bled and Belgrade, where he will meet with President Aleksandar Vucic, the prime minister of Pristina's provisional institutions, Albin Kurti, "but also a number of partners, friends and experts on the Western Balkans and global political developments."
