“including security” What is the strategic dialogue that the United States interrupts because of Kurt?

The US Embassy in Kosovo announced on Friday that Washington has suspended strategic dialogue with Kosovo for an indefinite term.

In a communique of the American Embassy, it is known that the move was taken because of the incumbent government, which, according to the United States, has raised tensions and instability, making co-operation difficult on common priorities.

But what is strategic dialogue?

Strategic dialogue is a process that the US State Department in most cases develops with different countries of the world aimed at advancing bilateral relations.

This process includes high-level discussions between the two countries that are held either in Washington or in the current country, on a wide range of topics such as defence, security, environment, energy, economic co-operation, etc.

Based on information from the State Department, the US has developed strategic dialogue with France, the United Kingdom, Romania, Austria, Poland, Slovenia, Moldova, Greece, northern Macedonia, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain, Egypt, etc.

The US is involved in strategic dialogue not only with states, but also with organisations or movements of countries it does not consider allies, such as the Svilatana Tsikhanouskaya-led democratic Belarusian Movement.
