Brad Nishani: Kosovo won't accept Serbia's double game

Nishani in an interview for KosovoPress has said that there is no dilemma in the region, nor the United States of America and the European Union, that Kosovo has always been a supporter and ready for dialogue with Serbia, but that is Serbia that prevents processes.

“Stabilising major problems and overcoming problems between Albanians and Serbs goes through Pristina. On the other hand, we can say with great certainty that, unfortunately, many agreements that have been reached during this process of dialogue on the part of the Serbian side by 60 per cent or 70 per cent of them have been refused to implement, have been blocked and one of the most important commitments Serbia has been not to prevent integration, whatever regional initiatives, in Kosovo's international institutions, has resulted in a big lie of them, rather they have invested powerful lobbies to destabilise the integration and association process of Kosovo and the state of Kosovo in the international world<1x>, Nisani said.

Nishani stressed that Kosovo institutions are interested in continuing dialogue but have their right to see the implementation of agreements reached so far with Serbia.

Kosovo's <x0 institutions continue to remain interested in the continuation of the dialogue, but in the first place, they have all the right to see the implementation of agreements previously reached in the main interests of Kosovo's integration into European, international institutions, to give up on the marginalisation of Kosovo's progress in ending organised crime and insulating Kosovo's specific areas of free state territory, recognised internationally by the vast majority of the free world <18x>, he said.

Nishani expresses the deep conviction that Kosovo will soon join NATO, and no one in European integration processes can prevent Kosovo, as according to him, undermining Kosovo means undermining the stability of the region.

The “cannot always be just Kosovo and Kosovo authorities who not in the sense of making concessions but only to fulfil their commitments unilaterally because, as far as Kosovo's commitments are going to be fulfilled, if the Serbian side does not fulfil its commitments all these positive Kosovo efforts return to peace. Therefore, the issue of imposing taxes, tariffs or even various decisions that Kosovo institutions can take and take are absolutely in the function of clarifying a” process, he said.

As far as dialogue with Serbia is concerned, Nishani says the time has come for dialogue and the Albanian-Serbian stabilisation process to be on a clear etap road, with clear objectives.

The time has come for the Albanian-Serbian dialogue and stabilisation process to be on a Map run on a clear path of etappa, with clear objectives and no longer moving alone on an empty path and not turning into an empty circle with no concrete products and no concrete commitments. And in this case, I think it is entirely the responsibility of the Serbian side to agree, as I have heard, the demand that comes both from the Kosovo Parliament, whether from the Government, whether it is from all Kosovo institutions that are required to have a clear platform with clear points, with clear objectives, with clear commitments and a clear scheme of continuing this dialogue. So it's time to become practical, to be clear and true. Any other attempt to play double games, of course I am convinced that I will not overlook the will of the Kosovo Government, of the citizens of Kosovo who are ultimately a free country today, are an independent country, have strong international support”, he said.

Nishani has also spoken of the situation in Albania, where he has said that any neglect of the major crisis could bring a situation of citizens' clash with institutions representatives.
