The removal of measures: The irritated Kurt answers: I don't speculate about speculation

Kosovo's prime minister has not commented on statements by European Union officials, who have called them speculations, news that the measures imposed on Kosovo will be removed.

The executive leader, questioned by journalists if he believes the EU will remove Kosovo's measures, he said he does not want to speculate about speculation.

I don't think I should speculate about” speculation, Kurti said February.

European Union officials have said earlier this week that lifting punitive measures against Kosovo is an institutional issue of member states, and not one from abroad trying to speculate on the content and deadlines.

The “will take place at the right time for the High Representative and member states and the content will see and discuss the member states first and then make the necessary decisions. And when that happens or when that happens, we will inform our colleagues in Kosovo what the outcome is. So there is no space and we don't see the reason for these public speculations and reports by various actors”, European Union spokesman Peter Stano said during a conference Monday.
