Hacker in a post on the X platform writes that connecting Kosovo's membership to the Council of Europe with the issue of the Association of Serb majority municipalities would be a big mistake.
The implementation of the Serbian Communist Association would be a serious mistake. Again, it seems that some Western countries have not learned from past mistakes”, he writes.
By contrast, Germany and France several weeks before the meeting of the KiE Committee of Ministers has called for moves towards establishing the Association of Serb-run municipalities.
Meanwhile, Council of Europe information official Estelle Steiner has confirmed to Telegrafi that Kosovo's application currently does not figure in the ongoing discussions of this committee.
Kosovo is now not on the agenda of meeting the Committee of Ministers”, Steiner has said.
According to the agenda, the foreign affairs ministers of 46 Council of Europe member states will hold their annual session on May 17th 2024, within the organisation's 75th anniversary.
Linking the memory of #Kosovo to the Council of Europe with the implementation of the Association of Serb Milicipalites would be a medieval woman. Again, it seems that some Western countries didn't learn from past mysteries. (TH)
