Sanctions towards Kosovo, Ramadani: US can place against high-level individuals, EU towards people

Ramadani has said there is the danger that the entire northern Kosovo area inhabited by ethnic Serbs could be taken over by internationals.

“If the addition of KFOR troops continues, the addition of EULEX troops, may come to a situation in which only internationals take control of the north, and that then puts Kosovo in an even worse situation”, Ramadan said at RTV 21.

Under the Brussels and Ohrid Agreement is the 60-day Donors' Forum after the deal, that did not happen, is only talking about 1.9 billion euros they had to give to Kosovo alone.

Ramadani said that in October, US and EU measures could either lift or shift to sanctions.

The transition to sanctions implies two concepts, one may be to high-level individuals, which is primarily the American concept and the European concept that is sanctions against people or state”, Ramadani said.

Former AKI chief Burim Ramadani has said Kosovo's north is one of the most militarized areas in Europe if we exclude Ukraine.

The one on RTV21's Click show has said adding KFOR and EULEX forces to the four northern municipalities is not something positive for Kosovo.

With the increase of security members from these three institutions there is no war, but that does not mean there is calmness and rising tensions can cost Kosovo, as it has so far cost”, Ramadani said.
