Isa Mustafa: reciprocity measures to co-ordinate with US

From the US Secretary of State to the US ambassador to Kosovo, calls for the removal of the fee have been repeated. These include the demands of Trump's emissary Richard Green, who has proved that he quickly decides where he pleads. He wants the fee removed and here to end all about the ideas of sanctioning. While Prime Minister Kurt is resisting American pressure, Isa Mustafa says only one thing is important: co-ordination with America.

The LDK's Vetevendosje movement part of the ruling agreement has had the replacement of the fee on Serbian products with measures of reciprocity.

However, the United States of America partly supports this point of agreement. They ask for the tax to be removed, but they say no to reciprocity.

From the US Secretary of State to the US ambassador to Kosovo, calls for the removal of the fee have been repeated. These include the statements of Trump's emissary Richard Grenelli, who has proved that he quickly and firmly decides on the issues between Kosovo and Serbia. He wants the fee removed and here to end all about the ideas of sanctioning.

LDK chief Isa Mustafa, questioned whether he defends the idea of establishing reciprocity even after American pressure, has said co-ordination with the US is essential. Others he calls modalities.

The key is for the process to co-ordinate with the United States, as our strategic partner. Other issues remain modalise”, Mustafa has said in a response to the Gazette Express.

The LVVA Media Office, meanwhile, has said that reciprocity issues lie behind what has been agreed with LDK.

The official LVVA position has said Kurti two days ago at the Kosovo Producers Convention. Even after US calls for immediate tax removal, without imposing other measures, Prime Minister Kurti has said he will impose full reciprocity.

“will replace the 100% fee and implement full trade reciprocity with Serbia as with each state. Tarifa has been the decision of the past government. We are not for tariffs as a punishment measure against consumers, but for reciprocity as a safeguard clause against producers.

In his earlier statements as prime minister, Kurti has said he does not want to leave space between the fee and reciprocity. According to the prime minister, he will first impose reciprocity measures on Serbia, and then lift the fee.

LDK Deputy Chairman Lutfi Haziri has written on Thursday that a leader must make decisions that may not be popular but are necessary for the future. He has said the tariff should be removed, and for reciprocity they take steps then.

Hard decisions make a leader successful. Not always, they are popular decisions for the present but necessary for the future. Time for serious but necessary decisions. Time to clear the fee. Ratings for reciprocity take place in walking around”, Haziri said.

Neither President Hashim Thaci in an interview given by the Serbian-language BBCé has supported the deployment of reciprocity measures.

Express recently reported calling to sources that senior American officials feel they were lied by Prime Minister Kurti on the issue of leaving the fee to Serbian and Bosnian products. At first, the US was considering continuing investments in Kosovo, unless the tariff is lifted.

The sanctioning measures, with a 100 per cent fee for Serbia's products, and of Bosnia and Herzegovina, have placed former Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj in November 2018.
