No recognition, scandals and irritability of reports with Allies President, that's foreign policy

Kosovo President Vjosa Osmani, today during her annual address to MPs and the entire people, had an answer for critics that Kosovo is foreign political government with Kurti fellows. In fact, the president thinks Kosovo has foreign policy as never before. She sees foreign policy very much on the level. But we through this text bring back to mind the president that Kosovo has not even a single recognition since nearly two years, no membership in international organisations. And yet there is something. Rounding scandals, insinuating reports with international allies...

Kosovo's foreign policy is saying some voices, of course, that Kosovo has foreign policy, in fact Kosovo finally has foreign policy...

Since Kurti's coming to power, diplomacy has been running in many ways. In fact, even connoisseurs say so, but it is easy to understand even from ordinary citizens. Periscope brings you some of the scandals of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Diaspora, led by Minister Donika Grovalla, then no recognition of the outside reports.

No recognition for almost two years

Invisibility is estimated to have characterised government governance for a year and a half in terms of recognition. Thus, no new recognition has been added to our country since February 1st, Israel.

The five EU member states that have not recognised Kosovo are Spain, Romania, Slovakia, Cyprus and Greece.

And ironically, Minister Gervala had openly shown that he has no prioritization of this part, which naturally corresponds to Serbia, which does not stop with the lobbiing about recognition around the world.

There's been a while since we've met. But recognition itself is not the main element that determines the success of Kosovo's foreign policy”. We have initially focused on strengthening relations with states that we already have formal recognitions, but we have had exchanges and relationships have not been materialized”, Gervala said during the summer.

And unlike Gervala, her boss, Prime Minister Kurti, has had only Serbia's recognition. So knowledge in the center of the dialogue, which is not yet achieved.

No membership in international organisations

In addition to recognition, we have had no membership in international organizations.

Analyst Donika Emine had said the Kosovo government had to use the one-year period before September for application to organisations such as the International Criminal Police Organisation (INTERPOL) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Agency (UNESCO).

So far, Kosovo has applied for membership in the Council of Europe. As with today, Prime Minister Kurti will submit Kosovo's application for membership in the European Union.

Emini declared and the government so far has been constantly talking about membership in NATO and the European Union, which, according to her, are currently elusive and hampered due to dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia.

Visa Danger

Now when the Czech presidency has decided that Kosovars will move visa-free from January 2024, three weeks ago we almost missed that opportunity.

The REL reported that it was removed from the agenda of the EU member states' membership ambassadors' proposal for visa liberalisation on 1 January 2024 due to the situation in the country's north.

And for this tested situation in northern Mitrovica, Kurti has been highly criticised since the Targa decision, which still pushed him to the last with the extraordinary elections in the north, which he also postponed. But the same situation is continuing to remain there, and the barricades are not yet being removed.

Speculations of Gervala and her ministry scandals

- We're starting with technical failures in social networks, where Minister Gervala has very often confused the flags of states or missions he has written about on Twitter primarily.

-During her meeting with the European Union's representative for the Kosovo dialogue Serbia and with US Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Matthew Palmer, Gervala did not put up the American flag at all, only the Kosovo and the European Union.

Its mistake has been observed by the US Embassy in Kosovo, since in their official communiqué they have used another photograph rather than that of meeting with Scharz, unlike the photos of meetings with other political leaders.

-In the course of this year, a older video of Minister Gervala was released, where she declared she would co-operate with the Special Court by sending evidence against Albanian indictees in this court.

Considering that Gervalla is a top diplomat, clarification was requested if she sent or sent material to Special, but although her reaction was not clear explosives, she did not deny that she has collaborated with the Special.

In addition, Grilla had broken out a scandalous statement during her speech at the UN Security Council meeting for the first time as minister, but at the beginning of her statement she chose to speak about Kosovo as a country steeped in crime and corruption before answering statements of her Serbian counterpart who accused the Kosovo Liberation Army as terrorist and spoke mourning and dark about Kosovo's sovereignty.

For the first time in any Balkan country, the majority of voters have voted to be released from corruption and crime. We are on a journey to fulfill the will and requirements of our people to make our new country fully known and respected members of the United Nations. As foreign minister, Kosovo's deputy prime minister, let me be addressed with all right sincerity, we can refer to details of the report later.”, Gervala had said.

Among the issues that have been deemed problematic during the rule of Foreign Affairs Minister Donika Grovall is the non-recognition of diplomatic mission leaders.

Minister Gervala scandalized the Hamburg General Consulate on Kosovo Independence Day. Former Consult General Gramos Begoli Begolli had explained how she had clashed with the foreign minister when she, all of a sudden, was presented as organising the Kosovo Independence Day festival in Hamburg.

A bad incident or representation has taken place, as in the case of the independence festival, Minister Grovall has come unannounced at the Kosovo consulate in Hamburg”, Begolli relates.

On the occasion of high visits to another country, high-level visits should be announced. According to regulations, we at the consulate had to inform the German authorities and the police to wait at the airport for Minister”.

The drill had fired the consul in question.

Foreign ministry sentenced 13 thousand euros due to Pridon Sadriut

The Agency for Information and Privatehood (AIP) has sentenced the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Diaspora to 13 thousand euros.

This is because the latter have not provided access to public documents for travel spending (fueled) of the diplomat and the husband of President Vjosa Osmani,don Sadriut, during the period from February 2019, until February of this year.

When we're at the First Lord, we bring his attacks on the media back to the attention, labeling it “joint criminal enterprise”.

Reports Arcarm With Allies

The biggest reports between Kosovo and the US was the irritability of reports between Prime Minister Albin Kurti, as well as the special emissary for Pristina-Belgrade dialogue, Richard Green.

The US had suspended Kosovo from the programme for economic assistance. “The Millennium Challenge Corps” known as the MCC.

This avaz then continued on other issues, such as the decision on license plates, for which both America and the EU had expressed much disappointment why Prime Minister Kurti did not listen to their demands.

The same is happening with the demand for the formation of association, for which every day we hear from America and the EU that its formation should be initiated, even recently, American emissary Gabriel Escobar stressed that if this is not done by the Government of Kosovo, we do it.

According to PDK deputy Xahvit Haliti, the biggest mistake Prime Minister Kurti could make is to declare against US positions.

The head of the Democratic League of Kosovo parliamentary group, Arben Gashi, said in a statement that despite political agendas, the government should maintain reports with strategic partners, especially with the US./ P ERISCOPI/
