(5 years ago)Power in Kosovo may have changed, but it seems that the approach of key partners of our citizenship has not changed. This is based on the letters they sent to President Vjosa Osmani for the 13th anniversary of Independence. It all started with a letter [...]
It all started with a letter President Joe Biden sent to Vjosa Osmani. This letter asked the new government for commitment to the comprehensive agreement to normalise relations with Serbia. This statement by Beden comes immediately after State Secretary Antony Blinkent's statements, which declared the compromise must be made by both sides.
Vjosa Osmani and Albin Kurti in the electoral campaign have completely ignored the issue of dialogue with Serbia, with the reason that it was not a priority for Kosovo citizens, Periscopi explains.
“There is much work to be done, including the comprehensive normalisation of relations with Serbia, which at the centre has mutual recognition...” Beden.
But two more letters would come towards the new power in Kosovo that continues ignoring the subject of dialogue. One from France and the other from Germany.
French President Emmanuel Macron even praised the Hoti government for restarting the dialogue. But, Macro also ordered Kurti to pollute this dialogue “on the basis of progress already made. ”
“I would like to welcome Kosovo's commitment to dialogue with Serbia since its resumption, following the summit that Chancellor Merkel and I held on July 10, 2020. I fully support the European Union's mediation and its special representative for dialogue, Mr. Miroslav Lajcak, with the aim of reaching a comprehensive, final and legally binding agreement. It is important that discussions can resume as soon as possible, after the new Kosovo government is elected, based on progress already made. ” He said Macro.
Kurti, meanwhile, has promised to review the agreements made so far, allowing the opportunity to undermine progress made by past governments. Kurti and Vetevendosje have protested nearly every agreement reached in the past ten years with Serbia.
Germany?
Our friendly country reacted through President Frank Walter Steinmeier.
Even the German president praised the Hoti government for “the start of dialogue” until he called for the next government to address the subject as well.
