Rohde: There will be negative consequences to come, except Germany has reduced its relationship with Kosovo

He, in an interview for KTV's interactive “ ”, stressed that currently no further escalations are needed, but a behaviour of states on both sides.

Rohde commenting on Prime Minister Kurti's statement, which has said the only way to move forward is to remove criminal groups from the north, has said EU requirements have not yet been met.

If there's criminal activity, I'm still saying, we have to be prosecuted. But we are talking about EU requirements that have not yet been met. And the EU has clearly declared these requirements. There will be negative consequences to come, which have only come, and Germany has only reduced its relationship with Kosovo. Have the requirements I spoke about met? Are the mayors working from a distance? No. ”, he said.

He has said he would like to see a government listening to its closest allies, but according to him, unfortunately, this has not happened in the past weeks during the very, very serious developments.

I have to say I'm surprised that you ignore the advice of your closest friends, the 27 EU, US and United Kingdom countries. And we're in a situation in which, quite frankly speaking, of a downward spiral. All of them are engaged in uniformial acts that harm normal people. You know, if the border points now become difficult to cross, who suffers? The answer is: ordinary citizens”, the German ambassador has added to this interview for KTV.
