Government shows whether to negotiate with Bosnia 100 tax removal %

But Gashi said that “these negotiations have nothing to do with removing this measure”.

“Bosnia and Herzegovina has applied for a meeting on bilateral issues within CEFTA. Kosovo has responded positively and the Kosovo Trade Minister will likely participate in a meeting in Bosnia in late January. We will listen to their demands, but we will also protect our attitudes and principles. So it is not about negotiations on this issue, but Kosovo will defend its position and principles why it imposed such a fee. Kosovo is obliged to respect this form of communication within CEFTA “, Gashi told Radio Free Europe.

Bosnia and Herzegovina Foreign Trade and Economic Relations Minister Mirko Sarovic confirmed that the Kosovo side, at the request of Bosnia, has accepted bilateral negotiations on removing the 100 per cent fee of goods from Bosnia. He stressed that they are preparing at the expert level to reach an adequate solution, but stressed that they cannot predict the outcome.

Kosovo Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj has said several times that the fee will be lifted only if Bosnia and Serbia recognise Kosovo.
