A high-level meeting held in Brussels in February 2023, which resulted in reaching an agreement between all sides based on the Franco-German proposal, marked a new phase in the normalisation process. For this reason, this event is taken as a starting point of this Shadow Report and this chapter provides an overview of key developments since this point until April 2026. The period from reaching the Agreement until today can be separated into four main phases: 1) immediate aftermath after reaching the Agreement and multiple crises which peaked with the armed attack on Kosovo Police near village Banjska/Banjskë; 2) deadlock in the process following the 2023 crisis; 3) stagnation during most of 2024; and 4) cautious reopening of the dialogue by the end of 2025 and early 2026.
