As his office reports, Kurti has told Terras that there are indicators of “involving foreign actors, as investigations continue to continue”.
The prime minister's office said Kurti thanked the European Parliament for “continuing support for Kosovo on its path towards European integration and important institutional reforms”.
He said that the Republic of Kosovo is a very good example that economic development and democratic progress can move side by side. It stressed the Government's commitment to implementing the Growth Plan, which is the main instrument for economic growth and accelerating the EU integration process”, said the ZKM report.
Under the Development Plan, Kosovo witnessed its institutional preparation while implementing E reform agenda RA II was achieved a implementation rate of 72% of the 45% in past governments, while in the National Programme for European Integration (PKIE) the implementation level in 2017 reached 66.12%”, says Kurti's office.
The theme of this meeting was the latest terrorist attack on the Iber-Lepenci channel, which took place on November 29th. It was the third attack in three days that the country's institutions targeted. Prior to the target were the Zvecan Police Station and the Zvecan municipality Assembly building. It also constitutes the second large-scale attack on national security, following the pre-milial attack on September 2423 in Banjska, aimed at annexing the country's north and where a Kosovo Police Sergeant was killed and the largest and most serious attack on critical infrastructure, aimed at cutting off or challenging essential services, such as current, water and telecommunication, and the social, civic, economic and institutional disorder. The method, the target, the execution of the attack, along with the seizure of military weapons, uniforms and emblems -- the devastating majority of which from Serbia and 20 other Russia -- are indicative of the involvement of foreign actors, as investigations continue”, the report said.
There, the prime minister said “called for the EU's departure of measures towards Kosovo and stressed the importance of accession as soon as the questionnaire and candidate country's status for membership in the European Union”.
The prime minister thanked the rapporteur Terras for the visit and constructive discussion. Meanwhile, he thanked the prime minister for the hospitality and readiness for co-operation with the European Parliament”, the announcement said.
