RKS NEWS

The Ambassador of Germany in Kosovo, Jorn Rohde, has spoken about the security situation in the country, saying that after the Banjska attack, KFOR has reacted and is now taking a stronger stance.

Asked that in Kosovo they fear that this issue will turn into visa liberalization 2.0. So there will be endless postponements in the Council of Europe?

Rohde said that “The Council of Europe is always, let’s say, the closest fruit of the tree of Europe to be plucked, that is, of your way to the European Union and other organizations and that Kosovo should do before we have a vote .”

“That’s why we want to act now, to take advantage of this opportunity. This is a good opportunity to accelerate Kosovo’s path towards European structures. The Council of Europe is always, let’s say, the closest fruit of the tree of Europe to pluck, that is, of your way to the European Union and other organizations.

We have the recommendation of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, even with a very large majority, but it remains for the government to decide. From what we have seen from various statements of Kosovo’s close partners, we expect more to secure a two-thirds majority, because we have 10 non-recognising countries in the Council of Europe and you have an influencing factor. It’s a close result, and in order to make sure there are things Kosovo needs to do before we have a vote,” he told A2CNN.
