Berlin Summit in Tirana/ Kurti: Kosovo is still threatened with invasion by

The Prime Minister, Albin Kurti, spoke about the September 24 attack in Banjské in Zveçan, in the north of Kosovo, at today's Summit of the Berlin Process that is taking place in Tirana.

Kurti started talking about Serbia's threat of war against Kosovo, after thanking the Albanian Prime Minister, Edi Rama, and the Chancellor of Germany, Olaf Scholz, for organizing this summit and said that he decided to face new challenges. .

Albin Kurti says that it takes time to pass such an act.

"In a terrorist attack against Kosovo on September 24, one of our police officers was killed, but the perpetrators still roam free in Serbia even though they publicly admitted their involvement. This was an evil act sponsored by Serbia, as the incontrovertible evidence shows. We have confiscated over 5 million euros of sophisticated weaponry and ammunition produced in Kragujevc and Çaçak. Four times in the last two years, Serbia has brought its army to our border. Even twenty-five years after the genocidal campaign, and after so many rounds of dialogue, Kosovo is still threatened with invasion from Serbia. This moment requires us to reflect and not continue work as usual. Such an act should not go unpunished" , he added.

The Kosovar Prime Minister said that ignoring a key agreement on freedom of movement by Bosnia and Herzegovina means that the visa requirement between Kosovo and Bosnia continues.

"And as leaders, we must engage in that process in good faith. A commitment in good faith is required to guarantee the long-term effectiveness of our agreements and the respect of all parties invested in the process. "Unfortunately, ignoring a key agreement on freedom of movement by Bosnia and Herzegovina means that the visa requirement between Kosovo and Bosnia continues," said Kurti.

He said he welcomed the new agreement on new professions for nurses, veterinary surgeons, midwives and pharmacists, and "future agreements which further expand the range of professions covered".

"We support the "Four-step Plan" of EU growth for the Western Balkans by the President of the European Commission. The EU can be reformed and enlarged. I also believe that the benefits of the EU Single Market should be linked to economic and democratic reforms. There should be no EU benefits, nor EU funds, without EU values," said Kurti.

"Together, we must continue to work towards sustainable growth for our region. Kosovo, a vibrant democracy, is prepared to face new challenges and embrace a brighter future. In this regard, we are pleased to have created the Convergence Observatory", said Kurti.
