France's Ambassador to Kosovo, Didier Chabert, during an interview with the newspaper “Voice” has spoken of Prime Minister Haradinaj's decision to dismiss the Commission for Demarketation, where, according to him, the government chief's decision should be respected.
As far as the submission of the Demarket Agreement to International Referee is concerned, Chamber has said that the agreement between the two sides is needed and there is no indicator that Montenegro is willing to accept to reopen the topic, which it considers to be finally resolved.
On the other hand, remember that in the case of the territorial dispute between Croatia and Slovenia, The Hague's Permanent Arbitrazy Court has taken eight years to make a decision. I doubt that the people of Kosovo will be willing to wait so long for visa liberalisation”, he underlined.
“This is a problem belonging to the political class in Kosovo, and especially to the parliamentarians whose general interests must prevail before political calculations. People's expectations for visa liberalisation are great and depend on MPs elected by the people to respond to the people's aspirations. Therefore it is their responsibility to vote for ratification of this agreement, regardless of their political affiliation”, he said.
According to him, the agreement on both sides is needed and there is no indication that Montenegro, which has signed and ratified its border demarcation agreement with Kosovo, is willing to accept the topic, which it considers to be finally resolved.
On the other hand, remember that in the case of the territorial dispute between Croatia and Slovenia, The Hague's Permanent Arbitrazy Court has taken eight years to make a decision. I doubt the people of Kosovo will be willing to wait so long for visa liberalisation”, the French ambassador said.
