Membership in KiE, Kosovo off schedule for meeting ministers' committee

Kosovo is not expected to be on the agenda for membership in the Council of Europe, nor at the meeting of the Committee of Ministers held in the middle of the month.

At the meeting that the Committee of Ministers will hold on 13 May and 14 May, Kosovo does not figure as part of the agenda.

One of the voices that represented Kosovo at the KiE's Parliamentary Assembly, PDK deputy Ariana Musliu-Sashi, has said she sees no possibility of Kosovo being on the agenda.

“As a country that is currently without institutions, without representation, as a country that does not have allies talking about us, that lobby for the state of Kosovo, I don't see any positive steps and I don't see any possibility that Kosovo will be in the agenda, at the next meeting of the Committee of Ministers”, she has declared.

According to her, a positive turn can come only from a new government.

The “E is behind a government that has not been cooperative with our allies, which has not fulfilled the promises that it has given to our allies and therefore we are a state that has no support from the international community”, Musliu-Shoshi said.

The main conditions for Kosovo's application for membership in the Council of Europe were the implementation of the Constitutional decision on the return of the Decani Manual property and the foundation of the Association of Serb-run municipalities./Periscopi/
