Haradinaj: Second step towards lifting visa regime successfully closed

Kosovo Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj, commenting on the pro-vis visa liberalisation vote for Kosovo by the LIBE Commission, has written that the second step towards lifting the visa regime for Kosovo citizens was successfully closed.

He has written in Facebook that the European Parliament, the Law Committee for Civil Rights, Justice and Internal Affairs respectively, approved today the mandate for opening negotiations with the European Commission for abolishing visas for Kosovo citizens.

Kosovo has done great work, especially in empowering rule of law, so it is certain that the whole process will be successfully completed, enabling our citizens to move freely to EU countries. Grateful for the continued and great commitment of Eurodeputes and visa liberalisation rapporteur to the European Parliament, Tanja Fajon, and all other Eurodeputs who voted in favour of free movement for Kosovars”, he wrote
