(8 years ago)Kosovo Parliament Speaker Kadri Wessel in an interview for the German state news agency, The DPA said it hopes that after the withdrawal of German Bundeswher from this army's largest camp in Prizren, investors from German firms will come to this town. My “Caku is that as many German firms as possible [...]
My “Caku is that the more German firms come to Kosovo and the fewer Kosovars leave the country. It is important for us to open jobs so that our people stay in place“, Veselin told Deutsche Presse-Agentur (dpa).
Bundeswehri's uptown camp has been closed in 20 years and the Professional Learning and Invention Park is being opened instead. Germany is supporting this project.
Wessel has stayed in Berlin on Thursday, where he has, among other things, met with Bundestagur Wolfgang Schäuble (CDU) President.
“We hope that German investors in Prizren will be added and not only there but in our entire country“, Vessel has declared.
Kosovo is a small but strategically well placed country -- just two hours from the Adriatic and just two hours from the Thessaloniki port in Greece“, Wessel added.
Kosovo aims at “to be the most attractive country for investors“, he has said.
There is a programme for foreign investors to be provided land for exploitation without any financial burden. He has also warned of removing bureaucratic barriers and tax reliefs.
Developments in Macedonia and relations with neighbouring Greece are also important for Kosovo, he has said.
Serbia, on the other hand, has invited Kosovo to recognise it as an independent state.
Wessel has rejected the possibility of exchanging territories with the words “exchange of territories is not an option of“.
A reconciliation with Kosovo is for Serbia the central condition if it wants to draw near and membership in the European Union.
