The foreign minister thanked the Czech diplomatic Mission chief for his state's continued support, stressing that he highly appreciates Czech commitment and continued support for Kosovo under the Visegrad Group.

“We support any process that is in the interest of good co-operation and neighbouring, so we seek support from the Visegrad Forum for the Western Balkan Fund, as the only mechanism that directly includes the six countries of the region, with which the Republic of Kosovo currently heads”, Konjufca said.

The meeting also discussed economic agreements between the two countries, the Economic Co-operation Agreement signed by relevant ministries, and is expected to function with the planned meeting of the joint economic Commission.
