Gervalla has said Kurti at last year's summit had offered to sign three documents once since European partners had expressed urgency in implementing Kosovo-Serbia agreements. Chief diplomat Gervalla says that Kurti, in response to this international emergency, has been able to sign three agreements, including the one for Drift, bypassing concerns and comments made.
She has said that the EU has been able to bring Serbia and Serbia's signatures to the table that night, so that chance has been lost, and that Kosovo's comments about Draft remain valid.
The “as far as the draft has been delivered to us in September, and for which the prime minister in October has said that if the European chief statesmen who have been at the European Summit that day, after expressing an emergency on their part, since it is so urgent to address the issue of an agreement between Kosovo and Serbia, then the prime minister has offered there, aside from the concerns and comments we have put in writing to the Druff, to sit down parties and sign 3 documents. The February 27th agreement, the annex of March and Drift. Under these circumstances Kosovo would be ready to respond to the partner's urgency to implement and accept all three documents signed by the two sides. The EU that night has been able to bring Serbia and Serbia's signatures to the table. That's why our comments about Draft remain current because that chance we had that night didn't come true. I see there has been a unique chance, but expectations that Serbia will be constructive in the dialogue did not prove that night. The EU needs to think carefully about what the road is in the future, how it will act not only with the Kosovo-Serbia agreements, but what is the perspective of 2024, the EU will continue with Serbia's permission and risk ignoring, or there will be a change in approach to”, Gervala said.
