(2 hours ago)Experts for the Balkans, Edward P. Joseph, has estimated that responsibility for the institutional blockade in Kosovo belongs to political leaders, including both position and opposition.
Joseph said that the initial deadlock began by Prime Minister Albin Kurti, who, according to him, had a good chance of moving ahead after the big victory in the December elections.
Without question, Kosovo political leaders are responsible. And that includes some of them, not just one. The initial impasse was by Prime Minister Kurti. He had an opportunity to win a great victory - an amazingly great victory in December - to move forward. In my opinion, as an American and as a supporter of Kosovo and its entry into NATO”, he said, for EO.
As for former President Vjosa Osmani, he said it had built a good relationship with Washington in a challenging period for Kosovo, when strategic dialogue was suspended. “President Vjosa Osmani had an excellent relationship with Washington when things were very difficult and when strategic dialogue was suspended”, Joseph said.
According to Joseph, responsibility for the current situation falls not only on Kurti but also on opposition parties, which, according to him, have contributed to the continuation of the political stalemate.
So Prime Minister Kurti is responsible, but he does not bear sole responsibility. Even the opposition is responsible for this ongoing blockade. It is artificial, completely unacceptable and is benefiting Serbia because Serbia is later able to say: Look at this chaos”, he declared. /Periscopi/
