O'Connell: Kosovo is sovereign, should ambassadors be society's first responsibilities

The ambassador of Great Britain to Kosovo, Ruairi O'Connell, has said that during his mandate the positions he gave to developments in Kosovo were not personal but all of Great Britain. Such attitudes to build Kosovo, according to Ruair O'Connell, will have to do even in the future, even after the arrival [...]
Such positions to build Kosovo, according to Ruair O'Connell, will have to do even in the future, even after the new ambassador's arrival.
Kosovo will each time have a special place in my heart”.
” The positions of the British Embassy have not been my positions, but have been the British Government and this will continue. Relations between us do not depend on one person, but on societies that invest in these relations, to create Kosovo for investment”.
It is very important not to consider embassies, ambassadors as considered in Kosovo. It is very serious that Kosovo is independent and feels completely sovereign. But ambassadors should not be the first responsibilities of society”.
These statements British Ambassador Ruairi O'Connell told Kosovo's Klan 7 o'clock today, while detailing the British Talks campaign, where in honour of the country's 20th anniversary of liberation, foreign journalists have been invited to talk about press freedom.
The media license is very important. It's murder, kidnappings, lots of challenges. Britain's foreign secretary has decided to hold a campaign to protect press freedom. The situation in Kosovo is not the worst in the world, but it is not that convenient. There are many journalists who have been attacked”
” The situation isn't here like the world. But we must not accept the practice where journalists are attacked just by doing their job. The professional basis is that man can do his job by not having injuries or attacks. We invited a British journalist to this campaign. British Talks' days will take place tonight in Kino Armatta. Any viewer can attend performances through the British Embassy and ask questions with fellow speakers”.
O'Connell indicated that nearly 300 people have been participating in the campaign so far.
