Summary: | This paper was conducted through qualitative field research in Kosovo and Serbia. The sources of the information obtained through interviews will remain anonymous at the request of European Union (EU) representatives and diplomats. The paper briefly narrates the historical events that led to the creation of the First Agreement of Principles Governing the Normalization of Relations of Kosovo and Serbia with an in-depth assessment of Article 1 and its implementation process. The European Union played a crucial role as the main mediator between the countries, but is not exempt from criticism. Article 1 of the First Agreement defines the creation of an Association/Community of Serb majority municipalities in the northern region of Kosovo with its own statute and competences. The focus of this article is to ascertain what the determinants were for Kosovo, Serbia and the EU to sign the First Agreement and the importance of Article 1 and its implications for all parties involved. |

As fontes de informação obtidas por meio de entrevistas permaneceram anónimas a pedido dos representantes e diplomatas da União Europeia. O artigo faz uma breve descrição dos acontecimentos históricos que levaram à criação do Primeiro Acordo de Princípios que rege a normalização das relações entre o Kosovo e a Sérvia, com base numa análise aprofundada ao Artigo 1 eao seu processo de implementação. A União Europeia desempenha um papel crucial neste âmbito como mediador principal entre os países, sem que isso a isente de críticas. O Artigo 1 do Primeiro Acordodefine a criação de uma Associação/Comunidade de municípios de maioria Sérvia na região norte do Kosovo, com o seu próprio estatuto e competências. O foco deste artigo visa encontrar quais os determinantes que levaram o Kosovo, a Sérvia e a UE a assinar este Primeiro Acordo, bem como a importância do referido artigo e as suas implicações para todas as partes envolvidas.IUMRepositório ComumSiegertszt, Sidney Robin2021-04-26T13:09:50Z2015-01-01T00:00:00Z2015-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.26/36287enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-06T09:11:22Zoai:comum.rcaap.pt:10400.26/36287Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:28:35.068787Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
