The German Ambassador to Kosovo, Jorn Rohde, has stated that during the meeting of the Parliamentary Committee on Foreign Affairs and Diaspora, they discussed the potential lifting of the EU’s measures against Kosovo.
Following the conclusion of this meeting, Rohde indicated that a decision will soon be made to “unblock the situation.”
“We had a friendly and good meeting about current issues, the Council of Europe, the removal of measures, and I have presented Germany’s position as a close partner of Kosovo in Europe. We will soon have decisions that will unblock the situation,” declared Rohde.
The chairwoman of the committee, Arbreshë Kryeziu-Hyseni, also mentioned that the main focus of this meeting was the issue of lifting the measures against Kosovo.
“We specifically discussed the issue of lifting the measures. This meeting is part of a series of other meetings we will have with ambassadors to join the call for the removal of measures.”
When asked if the German ambassador confirmed that Borrell would submit the report on the issue of the measures to the member states next week, Kryeziu said there might be some movement.
She has announced similar meetings with ambassadors from other QUINT states.
Earlier, it was reported that next week the EU’s chief diplomat, Josep Borrell, is expected to submit the report regarding the possibility of lifting the measures against Kosovo.
