Vetëvendosje opposes bilateral relations with countries that do not respect Kosovo's sovereignty, and wants to cooperate with all countries based on the principle of reciprocity. Vetëvendosje has continuously criticized Kosovo's position in its negotiations with Serbia, claiming that the dialogue should be based on conditions and reciprocity. Vetëvendosje wants Kosovo to condition the dialogue with Serbia returning the bodies of missing persons from the Kosovo war buried in mass graves in Serbia, Serbia paying war reparations to Kosovo, and the return of the stolen pension funds and artifacts of the Kosovo Museum. Vetëvendosje considers dialogue with Serbia without prior conditions unfair and harmful. Vetëvendosje wants Kosovo to first negotiate with its Serb minority and the European Union, and then to go to negotiations with Serbia, after reaching internal consensus.
