Hoxhaj for Progress Report: Association is the finished issue for the EU, and Kosovo just needs to implement it

Through a writing on the social network Facebook, Hoxhaj has said that when he reads the European Commission's progress report on Kosovo, it is unfortunate that the transformation process has been halted and blocked, as, according to him, in recent years Kosovo has not had any internal reform in any sector and no success in foreign policy.

When you read the European Commission's progress report for Kosovo, it is unfortunate that the transformation process has been halted and blocked, as in recent years Kosovo has had no internal reform in any sector and no success in foreign policy. It has only received commitment from dialogue with Serbia, with no concrete benefits and no political and financial support! The progress report clearly states that Kosovo is not expected to receive candidate status at a nearby time. After applying in December 2022, Kosovo's request has not been addressed at all in Brussels, neither in writing nor with any informal political commitment!” wrote Hoxhaj.

“Report stresses that Kosovo must implement the Ohrid Agreement and the Annex. Also, it is clear that the European proposal for Association is a completed issue for the EU, and Kosovo has only to implement it. What the report's text contains is quite disturbing, which says: ) Both Kosovo and Serbia are expected to implement their respective obligations stemming from the agreement on the road to normalisation. This includes the establishment of the Association/United municipalities with the Serbian Majority (A/CSM). Kosovo expected to launch process leading to A/ The CSM, based on the European proposal presented to the parties on October 21st, 2023. Serbia is expected to begin meeting its obligations from the agreement in parallel by initiating recognition of Kosovo documents, symbols and institutions.” has written Hoxhaj.

This paragraph clearly understands that the Brussels and Association Agreement is in effect, and beyond the signing and implementation debate, all of these are in force!”, he said.
