Prattipati: Kosovo understands value of sovereignty

At this event, the US Embassy's deputy head in Pristina, Anu Prattipati, has praised Kosovo for meaning the value of sovereignty and democracy, naming this initiative a symbol of friendship between the two countries.

Meanwhile, incumbent Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo Albin Kurti has stressed strengthening the partnership between Kosovo and the United States of America, naming the stamp as a symbol of this friendship.

He has stressed that, beyond the US jubilee note, this stamp represents affirmation of excellent reports between the two countries and the decisive support the US has given Kosovo in the statehood processes.

Even beyond this important date, this stamp serves a symbolic affirmation of strong partnership and excellent reports between our two countries. The continued support of the United States for Kosovo has been crucial to our statehood and the consolidation of democratic institutions, and this support continues to play a vital role in our country's security and development. Honored in attendance, when our offspring celebrate on July 4th 2076 the 300th anniversary of the independence of the United States, we may not be, and maybe even the postal stamps will be. But one thing is certain, our alliance, the partnership between the Republic of Kosovo and the United States of America, will continue to live, as strong and stable as it is today, Albin Kurti stressed.

On behalf of the US Embassy in Kosovo, the deputy head of the mission, Anu Prattipati, has thanked the Kosovo Post for this initiative, calling it an honor for the American people.

Subtitles by: Every letter that lies there conveys a story of freedom and friendship between us. The Kosovo Post, I want to tell you that you have created something that will last a long time. Years after today, people, citizens will see this stamp and remember that Kosovo and the United States have stayed together for freedom. Like America, as we are marking the 250th anniversary of independence, we are expressing gratitude for our allies like Kosovo, a nation that understands the value of sovereignty, democracy and lasting co-operation. On behalf of the U.S. Embassy and the American people, thank you very much for this honor and for your friendship”, Prattipar said.
