4 minutes agoEU sanctions, largest coup to be given to Kosovo economic development
Periskopi(3 years ago)
(3 years ago)Reports between the United States of America and Kosovo are now at the lowest point since the post-war. On the other hand, the European Union has already put some sanctions on Kosovo as a result of the lack of will, the escalation of the situation in the north, and the failure to respect the commitments taken at the summit [...]
According to Gerxhaliu's economic development, which has also been at a very low level, with the suspension of EU-funded funds and projects, Kosovo has suffered the biggest blow its economic development could be given.
The fact that we have frozen funds, Kosovo has been with several regional initiatives, the fact that the interpretation of Stabilisation and Association Agreements is being suspended as one of the biggest agreements and that there will be no EU-funded projects, and other allies I believe is the biggest coup given to Kosovo and its economic development. An economic development that was also at a very low level, so I definitely didn't think I'd experience it, but that's a sad reality. And what's most disturbing is polarization of the population and the extreme politicization of them. ” Gerjaliu said of Periscope.
Gerjaliu has said Kosovo is in a miserable situation, with the consequences of which the coming generations will suffer.
“ ...in this direction I believe the damage is in certain dimensions, it shouldn't be canceled the damage of these sanctions in the economic aspect alone is a major concern of the political aspect, it's disturbing in the integration aspect is the most disturbing social aspect. But nobody is analyzing the aspect of how Kosovo after Serbia and Russia is the only state that has sanctions from friendly states. So it's really a situation of misery that will cost the coming genomes, and in this respect I believe it's time for reflection and not silence. ” He said.
The economy expert stresses that Kosovo's situation now is exactly as its enemies have been demanding for centuries.
The saddest truth is that today Kosovo is as its secular enemies have been demanding for years, a disunited without friends and severely abolished. On the other hand, the worst that Kosovo can do is these sanctions or measures, which are coming from friendly states, whether from the United States or from European sells that are really the biggest meritors that Kosovo is an independent state, that we have won the war. ” Gerjaliu said.
The IPA fund's suspension is just one of the measures undertaken by the EU to show that lack of sufficient actions to resolve the conflict in northern Kosovo will not be tolerated.
The sanctions include “the integrity of” troops created under the Stabilisation and Association Agreement, Kosovo's failure to meet at the summit, and the suspension of bilateral visits, as well as the suspension of proposals submitted by Kosovo within the framework of Western Balkans investments.
The Kosovo government had been announced for these sanctions since 28 June. Prime Minister Albin Kurti has said these sanctions are unfair, while adding that they are temporary. / P ERISCOPI-Albina Zariqi
