Veliu: Tensions in the north coincide with Serbia, Kurti is stubborn

Regionally-recognisor Lulzim Veliu has estimated that the recent tensions in the north have not been in Kosovo's interest, and that, according to him, they have converted to Serbia. In addition to political problems, Veliu has considered tensions bring economic problems to the country.

Veliu has said the resumption of negotiations is good news as he pushes Kosovo towards the final agreement with Serbia.

Our government had to be more careful, not stop dialogue. It is good luck that a step has been taken with the resumption of negotiations. What has not been achieved [the meeting of chief negotiators with Lajcak], but the start of the negotiations is good and moves us towards the final agreement that paves the way for European and Euro-Atlantic integration. With negotiations and tensions ending in the north, we are dealing not only with political problems but also with economic problems. We need to act to create the possibility of attracting investors. Tensions are not in Kosovo's interest. A conflict within the Republic of Serbia alone coincides with “, he said at KTV's “60 Minutes”.

Veliu has declared that the Government of Kosovo has made a mistake in steps from the Targat issue to the election of new mayors in the north.

We must insist on the Ohrid Agreement to be realised. Stop tensions that are not in our interest. Don't miss the deal that's on the table”, he added.

He believes the withdrawal of measures from the European Union for Kosovo will take place step by step.

Veliu has also accused Prime Minister Albin Kurti of “prime minister” after rejecting meetings with Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama.

The “is terrible, we have a power subject that has promoted the national union and is now meeting with the Albanian prime minister. Kurt's pride as always. It's a personal ego of our prime minister that runs away from such meetings”, he said.
