Kosovo's road to INTERPOL, here are reasons for failure

Although the path has also made it difficult for Serbia's aggressive lobbie, the main culprits are estimated to be Kosovo authorities, who, according to security connoisseurs, were never a priority for membership there, writes the newspaper éZriê today.

Although with a broken leg following the failure of 2018, Kosovo had even this year made its way for the fifth time in a row to become part of the largest international police co-operation organisation. I NTERPOL.

But even this time Kosovo failed to finalise this journey, but this time not because of the lack of 2/3 of votes, but at the request of Kosovo authorities, who one day after the assembly of this organisation began decided to postpone Kosovo's application for membership until next year.

Acting Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj had not initially supported the idea that Kosovo would withdraw its application, but one day after the INTERPOL General Assembly had begun, he made the decision that Kosovo should be held back from this process, writes further the newspaper “Zri”.

“Acting Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo Ramush Haradinaj, considering the circumstances created and based on his competencies as prime minister in office and the recommendation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has today called for the postponement of Kosovo's vote for membership in INTERPOL for next year”, the prime minister's announcement said.
