He has said that the EU's decision to delay this process would only play in the hands of Serbia and Russia, but not enabling visa liberalisation in this country, the EU is allowing Turkey to influence the frustrated society of Kosovo.

Kosovo is still awaiting visa liberalisation. The EU's decision to delay this process will play only in the hands of Serbia and Russia, but denying visa liberalisation towards this country, the EU is allowing Turkey to influence the frustrated Kosovo society”, Ben-Meir wrote.

A few days ago, former US Special Intermediator for the Kosovo-Serbia Dialogue Richard Green has criticised the EU for visa liberalisation.
