EU, UN to discuss EULEX 21 November 2008 | 10:09 | Source: B92 BELGRADE -- Ahead of next week’s expected UN Security Council session on EULEX, EU High Representative Javier Solana and UN Sec-Gen. Ban Ki-moon are meeting in New York.

Solana spoke earlier about the attempts to have the EU mission deployed to Kosovo by December with the outgoing U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, though the outcome of that meeting is still unknown.
Meanwhile, UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown has called on officials in Priština to cooperate with the EU in order to resolve the EULEX issue.
Brown’s spokesman announced that the government in London did not support Ban’s six-point plan, nor the four-point plan of the temporary authorities in Kosovo, but called on “both sides to work hard to overcome the existing differences,” the BBC reports.
Brown and his Foreign Secretary David Miliband discussed the deployment of the EULEX mission with Kosovo President and Prime Minister Fatmir Sejdiu and Hashim Thaci.
Although the Kosovo authorities have been under strong pressure of late to accept the six-point plan defining the mandate of the EU mission to Kosovo, over which the UN and Serbia have reached agreement, Priština continues to obstruct the process.

Eventhou, Gordon Brown is calling for Pristina to accept the plan, my gut feeling is the Albanians won't accept this. If Pristina does accept it the people will turn on the government......now lets watch and see what will eventuate from all of this.
