Mustafa: US move tougher than EU sanctions

I think there are two aspects of this decision. The first, symbolic heavy one, that the US interrupts strategic co-operation with the Kosovo government and the second, linked to long-term consequences in the areas of security, diplomacy, international and economic co-operation. In my opinion, this decision is more serious than the economic and political sanctions imposed by the EU. You have to be very smart, and I'd rather say a lot stupid and irresponsible to say what Kosovo can do without the US” has declared Mustafa for IndexOnline.

He added it is irresponsible to think that Kosovo can move forward without US support.

Commenting on whether this is a serious warning or temporary move, Mustafa said: “is clearly evident that the measures towards Kosovo are not temporary. The EU's case clearly speaks. The less these can be of America. When I mention it The U.S. bad name, it's hard to get through without consequences. The interests and strategies the US engages in should be respected. ”

As for the impact on reports between Kosovo and the US, he warned of serious diplomatic consequences.

There will be a lack of support in relevant international, diplomatic and financial institutions. There could be a resumption of the process of recognition that the United States stopped with Washington's agreement with Prime Minister Hoti. At any table of dialogue we will be less sure of what will happen in the future. ”

The former prime minister also sharply criticised the approach of the current government, saying such a decision would be avoided only with full co-ordination with American partners.

The government must co-operate and co-ordinate operations with the US. Don't fuck your country for making you a country. Do not puff yourself up with sovereignty to the one who is defending his sovereignty with his army and diplomacy. Of course, if you don't have a mission to destroy what has been accomplished. ” /Periscopi/
