U oktobru, lideri glavnih sedam političkih stranaka održali su dva kruga pregovora s visokim zvaničnicima EU i SAD u bazi Butmir, u pokušaju da prekinu politički ćorsokak koji je zaustavio napredak ka pristupanju EU i NATO-u.
In October, leaders of the seven main political parties held two rounds of talks with senior EU and US officials at Camp Butmir, to try to break the political stalemate that has stalled progress towards EU and NATO accession.
