Newly elected President Tomislav Nikolic has met leaders of the Serb-run northern part of Kosovo to show them some of the documents on the controversial talks, which he has seen and obtained since winning the May election.
Nikolic beat Boris Tadic of the Democrats in the presidental runoff on May 20.
The new head of state, who comes from the nationalist wing of politics, said Serbs in Kosovo have a right to be kept informed of all agreements and decisions made by Serbia on their behalf.
"We will get all the [remaining] documents very quickly from Brussels... These are the documents that the President's cabinet has yet to explore," Dragisa Milovic, mayor of Zvecan, in northern Kosovo, said after the meeting.
Belgrade and Pristina started the EU-mediated talks in Brussels in March 2011. So far, the two sides have reached deals on freedom of movement, recognition of university diplomas and representation of Kosovo at regional meetings. However, none of the agreements has ever been made public.
Nikolic also said that the government and all state institutions must do everything possible to ensure the safety and rights of Serbs who live in Kosovo, which declared independence from Serbia in 2008.
Serbia does not recognise the act and continues to maintain that Kosovo is a province of Serbia.
Nikolic also said that all problems in the former Serbian province must be resolved solely by peaceful and democratic means.
