Periskopi(5 years ago)
(5 years ago)“Finance is the most disobedient country”, so “is important to convince the French government that Kosovo is ready for visa liberalisation”, European Parliament Rapporteur Violet Von Cremon has said in an interview for Albanian Post. Unlike France, in terms of the European Commission, Von Cromon says that within this institution [...]
Unlike France, as far as the European Commission is concerned, Von Croamon says that within this European Union institution things are clear ) “Kosovo has met the criteria for liberalisation”.
She hopes the visa issue will be discussed at the European Council's next meeting, as, according to her, the “praise for visa liberalisation depends on the Council”.
I hope the Council will have him in their schedule soon and then they will assess him positively. At the same time, the Kosovo government should be involved in discussions with those EU member states, which are reluctant and Kosovars should address their questions”, she added.
Von Croamon spoke of Albanian Post and of last September 4th of last year's agreement between Kosovo and Serbia in the United States, which he called “campaign event”.
The Washington Agreement was not a well prepared meeting, and its goal was never to achieve anything with Serbia and Kosovo, was a campaign event for the American elections”.
According to it, the true “does not have many clear results”.
“Serbia and Kosovo need a comprehensive agreement, which will be the result of long negotiations, cannot be treated as just a pleasant event for photo”, the poet Cromon.
German politician has said Kosovo lacks political stability to finalise the projects.
Governments she says there are <x0 short-term”.
Kosovo's “lacks political stability and previous governments were short-lived. A government can be more successful only if there is more, not just a few months”.
As the main challenge for Kosovo, it lists the fight against corruption.
There are really problems in Kosovo and we have to fight against corruption. There is a serious need to reform some of the” institutions, Cromon points out.
The rapporteur for Kosovo has also spoken of final talks between Kosovo and Serbia, pointing to the final goal of these negotiations.
“The EU has a crucial role in these talks, as the final goal of Serbia and Kosovo is EU membership, so the EU is able to define clear requirements, and their role as an external player is also important”.
All at the end of the Albanian Post interview, Cromon said he expects free elections in Kosovo, now when there are three days left to keep them.
“It is extremely difficult to organise elections in such short notice and in the middle of the pandemic, authorities must work hard to ensure that elections are going well”.
“This time there was no opportunity to organise a full election observation mission, there are only a few international experts on the ground, but I hope the elections are well-organised and developed by the CEC in Pristina”, Croamon concluded.
