An important new appointment in the office of EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs Kaja Kallas is imminent: Danish EU diplomat Peter Sørensen is to become the new EU Special Representative for the dialog between Belgrade and Pristina. The appointment is to be formally confirmed next week at the ambassadorial level and then in the Foreign Affairs Council. According to diplomats, the way is now clear after former Finnish Foreign Minister Pekka Haavisto dropped out of the race.
