(8 years ago)British Ambassador to Kosovo Ruair O'Connell has backed statements by his American counterpart, Philip Costett, stressing that it is in Britain's and the US's interest that Kosovo be their partner in fighting corruption. At the opening of the Anti-Corruption Week, he has said that there was such a situation in Britain [...]
At the opening of the Anti-Corruption Week, he has said there were such situations in Britain as well, but progress has been noted in preventing the fight against corruption against Kosovo and corruption must be prevented on the ground.
It's very important to remember what was said. But we did not come here to rebuke Kosovo, but because it is fully in the interest of our states that Kosovo is a functional, secure state where corruption is fought”.
” We need a strong partner fighting corruption”.
”Britania has noted progress in fighting corruption. If we need to take such measures it is also very important for Kosovo”.
When we talk about politicians violating prosecutors we know what we're talking about. We know who we're talking about when it comes to party employment”.
It's not just about making laws here, it's about having the guts to fight it on the ground.
