Trans-conflict co-founder Ian Bancroft told SETimes that simply resuming talks would unlikely be enough for Serbia to be granted candidacy status. "Instead, Belgrade will be expected to both reach -- and implement -- agreements with Pristina, particularly to resolve the crisis created by the latter's unilateral attempt to install customs officers in the north at the end of July."
Jedan od osnivača Trans-konflikta Jan Bankroft izjavio je za SETimes da samo nastavak razgovora verovatno ne bi bio dovoljan da Srbija dobije status kandidata. „Umesto toga, od Beograda će se očekivati da postigne -- i da sprovede -- sporazume sa Prištinom, a posebno da reši krizu stvorenu jednostranim pokušajem [Prištine] krajem jula da se postave carinici na severu.“
