Rohde: Implementation of the Ohrid and Associaconi Agreement are key to membership in the Council of Europe

The Council of Europe's Committee of Ministers has voted with over 2/3 of the member states' votes, pro-prosecuting Kosovo's application to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.

And for this, Germany's ambassador to Kosovo, Jörn Rohde, has said that after visa liberalisation this act of the Committee of Ministers offers Kosovo even closer to the European family. But until full membership, it has called for implementation of the Ohrid Agreement, including implementation of the Serb majority municipalities' Association.

My <x0... Continued implementation of Ohrid, including Association, is crucial to moving forward”.

After last week's visa decision, today's vote The CoE to submit Kosovo's application to the Parliamentary Assembly brings the country back closer to the European family. Germany gave full support to this step”, he wrote on Twitter.

Kosovo aims to become part of the Council of Europe, especially after Russia's expulsion.

But Belgrade continues to oppose any integration of Kosovo into Euro-Atlantic structures.
