Knaus says the perfect “Kurthe” was built to prevent Kosovo's membership in the KiE

He has counted over the years the procedures Kosovo has passed and the demands made for the deepening of association.

“An Association may be created TANI. The Kosovo government cannot and will not stop it if it is in line with its constitution. He promised that to the Council of Europe again. But now some in Quint say: until there is an ESM, Kosovo will be blocked from joining the Council of Europe. This would ensure that neither the Association nor the Council of Europe ever happens” has written Knaus.

This, according to Knaus, is what Vuciq and Serbia want. “to keep Kosovo isolated, while re-arming”, he said.

The 2013 Agreement on the establishment of the Serb majority municipalities... Following the agreement that proposals for the statute of such an association come from the team representing Kosovo Serb municipalities. Nothing else makes sense or is legal. The Council of Europe standards for local self-government are clear: municipal associations must be established through municipalities. States should make this possible. Kosovo is... Strong municipalities with many exclusive competencies are the foundation of the Ahtisaari Plan and the 2008 Constitution”.

All these years and procedures according to Knaus have been summed up to create a perfect trap. “Stop Kosovo's membership in the Council of Europe”.

However, according to Khlus until 2023, despite the fact that Kosovo passed through you all of this, no proposal was presented by Serbs.

The proposal Kosovo gave under the constitution destroys municipal self-government, as well as crosses all red lines declared by the EU and the US. Since then: no new proposal from Serbian municipalities...”

According to Knaus, this would ensure that neither the Association nor the Council of Europe will ever happen.

His reaction comes after the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung ( FAZ) has published a writing on Prime Minister Kurti's visit to Berlin and developments about Kosovo's membership in the Council of Europe. According to the FAZ, reliance on the Committee of Ministers of Council of Europe member states is not as clear as in the KE Parliamentary Assembly, where accession was recommended. According to the newspaper Kurti, it has said that association can be founded by Serbs themselves because the government can impose it because it would be a violation of the principles of the Council of Europe and the Constitution of Kosovo. The EU has proposed draft status for Association, but the FAZ cites that the five Western countries have also proposed.

But, the German newspaper stresses that even young mayors have not been elected in northern municipalities, and that, according to writing, has been deliberately set to block Kosovo's association and integration into the KiE.

” Belgrade prohibits Serbian politicians from taking promising initiatives to establish an association of municipalities or to support proposals that are in line with the Council of Europe, while at the same time complaining loudly about the lack of that association.

A perfect excuse for Serbian diplomacy has been created in Belgrade to prevent Kosovo's integration into the West. With Kosovo's left hand on conditions, the right is ensuring that they are not met”, the German newspaper writes away.

For this very reason, writes Frankfurter Legendine Zeitung that SPD politicians have suggested the Vuciqi trap be averted.

The “in order to meet Quinti's request, there was also discussion in Berlin whether the proposal for a Serbian association of municipalities could now be handed over for review of the Council of Europe's constitutional lawyers. This could be a way out of the Serbian trap, according to SPD politicians in Berlin”.

QU The INT has demanded that the draft association draft is sent to the Constitutional Court for assessment as a step of the Kurti Government to establish association that would convince member states to give their pro-Kosovo vote for membership in the KiE. President of France Emmanuel Macron did the same research.
