The opposition says it wants “a red line” in the Belgrade – Pristina dialogue, not to bloc it.
Thaci’s parliamentary opponents requested a resolution to say that “the territory of the Republic of Kosovo is definite and inseparable, so no one, not even a president, has the mandate to discuss it.”

Neither the opposition nor the Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj supports his idea.
However, those in favour of limiting the president's powers in the European Union-mediated dialogue with Belgrade got the support of 50 deputies, while 61 votes were needed to pass the resolution.
