(5 years ago)Kosovo Foreign Minister Donika Grovalla has talked about visa liberalisation of the country. He said he does not expect the vote on the issue to occur before the spring of 2022.

The visa liberalisation issue has been laid down and there is a unity among EU member states with very few exceptions that Kosovo has at last not only fulfilled but has fulfilled those criteria that must be met to obtain visa liberalisation. Unfortunately, it hasn't happened so far. It's individual decisions by member states of a very small number of member states”, Gervala said.
“We must do what we can, we will do our best to convince skeptics that we have made obvious progress not only in meeting the pre-priced criteria, but also in the rule of the law and try to convince them to finally be given approval, she stressed in Rubik.
“We will beg member states to finally find a moment to vote on in order to see where we are and which states we have skeptical vessels. But this is an issue that is due to elections in different countries. Germany has just conducted its election, France has its own elections in the spring of next year. I would like the visa liberalisation issue for Kosovo” to be put under vote in France, she stressed.
There may be surprises, and we may have much earlier voting, which we will insist on taking place much earlier but will not surprise my act if by the spring of next year we do not have such a vote, said Gervala.
