Visa liberalisation: Who didn't do homework?

A statement by the chief of the European Union in Kosovo, Thomas Szunyog, that the government should do its homework in terms of visa liberalisation, echoed today in our country. The critical approach to this statement was widely seen throughout social networks, especially when we are used to hearing otherwise: that Kosovo has actually carried out the homework of home in terms of visa liberalisation. So who is he, or who are they doing their homework?

“ ...that's why I'd like to see the part besides EU institutions, seeing the government do her homework, to present the successes in this area, and work with member states to get the necessary support of the Council”, said Mr. Szunyog, today at the conference organised by the European Investors' Council on the 6th anniversary of the entry into force of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement.

He added further that this should be done by the work of embassies Kosovo has in the European Union countries.

And as Mr. Szunyog hasn't happened so far.

He set an example with a former ambassador (for whom we have no immediate knowledge)

“One of the former Kosovo ambassadors asked him how many times he visited the Ministry of Internal Affairs and spoke to these institutions that are responsible for Schengen of migration issues and He never said”, the chief of the EU office in our country reveals.

“never received any instructions to present figures for example regarding the fight against organised crime and corruption, take active steps and talk to people who are decisionmakers”, the chief of the EU office in Kosovo revealed.

Despite this poor example of our country that Mr. Szunyog, we can recall the statements of many powerful European countries, that Kosovo deserves visa liberalisation, and that Kosovo has fulfilled the criteria.

But despite these statements, Kosovo continues to remain the most isolated country in Europe. /Periscope
