The UN General Assembly has unanimously adopted a resolution calling for dialogue between Serbia and Kosovo.

The resolution opens the way for direct talks between the two sides - the first since Kosovo declared its independence from Serbia in 2008.

It also drops earlier Serbian demands to reopen negotiations on the status of its former province.

The European Union and the United States have already recognised Kosovo's independence.

The resolution replaced an original text in which Serbia rejected Kosovo's secession.

That demand was removed after Serbia was warned that such a stance would endanger its ambition to join the EU.
