The United States of America has begun to take measures against Kosovo officials for failing to withdraw the tax, reports news.net.
Even after numerous US calls, the Kosovo government stood firm in the 100 per cent tax decision on Serbian goods.
Sanctions were also warned, and what was expected happened. The United States has decided not to give visas to any Kosovo state officials.
And this is the first sanctioning step towards the Government of Kosovo by the United States of America, but there was no reaction from Kosovo officials after that.
But can reports between the state of Kosovo and the main ally of the United States of America be further hardened?
The news. We have contacted political affairs connoisseur Arton Demhaja, who has indicated that this is extremely pressure to convince the government of the tax removal decision.
I think that's the pressure the United States is making on our public officials, so I cut off taxes on Serbia's products. It's a measure of pressure in order to obey the government”, Demhaja is expressed.
He has also indicated that it remains to be seen how long the Kosovo government will resist pressure from both the United States and pressure from the European Union.
Their decision on visa non-visa is strictly this constant pressure to remove taxes. But we have seen that the government is standing firm and therefore remains to see how long the resistance will last, either against US pressure or against pressure from the European Union”, has been further expressed by Demhaja for news.net.
Asked whether these sanctioning measures could be exacerbated, Demhaja has indicated that the United States of America has taken it very seriously and other measures can be expected.
Of course, the United States of America has taken it very seriously, so other measures, even more aggressive to our 48x1>, can be expected, has been expressed.
It is noteworthy that the United States of America has asked the Government of Kosovo to only suspend taxes and not completely leave.
Such a call by the United States has not fallen to the right ear, and the decision is continuing to remain in effect even after US sanctions began.
