Also, Knaus cites the fact that in Europe in the last 30 years it has been a war zone in the Balkan countries, and says it should expand the peace zone for that is more important that Kosovo joins the Council of Europe.
We need to argue on this, it's a matter of war or peace. If you see Europe, if you look at the 50 states we have in Europe today, then every state that is not a member of the European Union or NATO has had a conflict in the last 30 years.

We have a war zone and a peace zone in Europe in the last 30 years, in the post-Flight War period, and we need to expand the peace zone. Kosovo and the Balkans must become part of this area of democratic peace as soon as before and the first concrete step to that effect, so it is so important that Kosovo joins the Council of Europe”, He said VOA.
