The United States supports Serbia's intention to pursue an international plan to normalize ties with Kosovo and eventually join the European Union, the U.S. ambassador to Serbia said on January 24. "It's really about Serbia's future and about relationships that Serbia needs," Christopher Hill told reporters in Belgrade, capital of the Balkan country, an ally of Russia. Both Kosovo and Serbia aim to join the European Union and in order to complete that process, both parties need to resolve outstanding issues and build good neighborly relations. President Aleksandar Vucic said on January 23 that Serbia risked an international backlash and losing a chance to ultimately join the EU unless it looked into a Western plan for normalizing its relations with its former province.
