Ymer: Now pressure will fall on Kosovo for Association

Analyst Visar Ymer says it is a good start of 2024, but according to him not because of the Kosovo government led by Prime Minister Albin Kurti.

According to him, although elements are happening that are positive for Kosovo, however, this does not spread a change of spirit and climate in Kosovo-Serbia relations.

We are still in a conflicted situation that does not show that there is a climate normalisation, rather there is an introduction to a new status quo which could be problematic how much the status quo of past years has been in terms of security aspects. It's good this news is happening, but Kurt doesn't have to enjoy it very much for two reasons: The first is that the pressure will now be greater for Kosovo to move, the first Kosovo movement I don't believe will have much patience waiting for us long is to submit the statute to the Constitutional Court... and the second is that in that interview Besnik Bislim had had. he distributed some of the points of the sequence plan for which it appears to have been agreed on how the deal will be implemented”, Ymer said on the “Debat Plus” show.

It's a good start of the year, but not because of government merits. In none of them is that this government has made the most important contribution and let alone the only one because I believe it is naive to think of”, he said.

Ymer points out that Prime Minister Kurt makes some covert admission that credits past governments too.

He's showing that these early jobs are already happening to be finalised. The main reason the prime minister did not address status is that each of these processes is related to dialogue...”, he added further.

Analyst Visar Ymer points out that Kurti made a big mistake last year when he thought the agreement he was accepting would not be implemented because it would refuse Serbia to implement.

And now it's the end of the year it's beginning to look at and realize that maybe Serbia will also implement it that the greatest pressure will fall on Kosovo. Implementation of the deal for the Franco-German plan, if this agreement will have a positive effect on non-recognition countries or remain in the way it is”, it concluded.
