Cultural Heritage and Property Sample Clauses

Cultural Heritage and Property. The question of cultural heritage in Kosovo represents one of the topics which have insofar been largely avoided within the Belgrade-Pristina Dialogue, but which should find their place within the legally-binding agreement on comprehensive normalization of relations.
