Serbia and Kosovo agree to launch direct commercial flights for the first time after a two-decade interval

Thaci said the deal was reached with the "contribution" of the US President Donald Trump's national security adviser, Robert O'Brien, and US ambassador to Berlin, Richard Grenell. There were no details on when the flights would start but officials in Kosovo said that Eurowings, a low-cost company owned by Lufthansa, would be involved. The road distance from Pristina to Belgrade is 350 km , around four hours by car.NATO has some 4,000 peacekeepers in Kosovo and is responsible for the control of Kosovo's airspace.
The United States and the EU have encouraged Serbia and Kosovo to normalise relations. If they do, Kosovo would be able to apply for membership of the United Nations, a move that Serbia’s old ally Russia is currently blocking.
