Belgrade and Pristina are under increasing international and domestic pressure to define their relations through a comprehensive normalization agreement. Both Serbian and Kosovo representatives in principle confirm their commitment to full normalization but have different and often conflicting understanding of it. For Serbian officials, a �comprehensive normalization� could include �everything but recognition,� that Belgrade is willing to �recognize reality, but not independence.� But for Kosovo representatives, �independence is everything,� that normalization without recognition is inconceivable.
