Israeli media find out: Thaci has promised to open embassys in Jerusalem if Israel recognizes us

Kosovo President Hashim Thaci has said that if Israel recognises Kosovo, his state would open an embassy in Jerusalem.

Jerusalem Post writes that the Republic of Kosovo in 2008 has unilaterally declared independence from Serbia.

With a majority Muslim and ethnic Albanian affiliation, Kosovo remains subject to the territorial dispute between the two countries.

In 2013, Kosovo and Serbia reached an agreement in Brussels, mediated by the European Union, for normalising their relations.

Kosovo President Thaci was part of negotiations, adds further Israeli mediaHe's following in on Telegrafie.

However, Israel has not yet recognised Kosovo as an independent and sovereign state.

The Hebrew state has cultural and trade ties with Kosovo, but it is still not ready to recognise Kosovo, considering it unilateral action.

The United States of America (SHBA) and 23 of the 28 EU member states have recognised Kosovo's independence.

“If Kosovo were recognised by Israel, it would open the Kosovo Embassy in Jerusalem”, Thaci said last night on Albanian television Vizion Plus.

Kosovo's president over President Trump's decision to transfer the American Embassy to Jerusalem, said Kosovo would never vote against US interests.

The Republic of Kosovo's “Landments with the United States are excellent, I met with President Trump, and his approach to us is the same as that of the former president”, Thaci has further said.
