Germany, NATO with strong messages for Kosovo-Serbia dialogue, during meetings they had with Albania's leaders

Yesterday, after meeting with Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama in Berlin, Scholz at a joint media conference, has said he expects the European plan for Kosovo-Serbia dialogue to be completed soon and successfully.

“We are dealing with a very weighted proposal of Germany and France and supported by the European Union and the United States of America and found its reflection also in the decisions of the European Council in Brussels. In this context I believe this process will soon be completed successfully... I think great progress has been made, if you look at the public statements of Vucinqiq and Kurti, that is progress. I think this is a plan that can be implemented and must be realised. So I'm happy when we achieve constructive and good results. My feeling is that what was not possible can now be realized. It would be good for the development of the region and Kosovo and Serbia”, he has said.

Albania's prime minister, Edi Rama, also gave absolute support to this plan.

“Albania, our government and I personally strongly support the peace plan and normalisation between Kosovo and Serbia. In our view there is an absolutely multi-recilative and realistic plan that brings about the necessary normalisation and many expected that the two sides should deal not only with the maximum seriousness, but also with all necessary courage”, he said.

“We co-operate with the European Union and welcome meetings in Brussels under dialogue. NATO will continue to strongly support this dialogue because we see it as the only right path to peace and stability in Kosovo.

Each solution should take into account human rights, good neighbourly and rule of law”, the chief said NATO.
