Kurti on Grenell's criticism: What can I do...

Prime Minister and leader of the Self-Determination Movement Albin Kurti, responding to the criticism from the U.S. President's Special Envoy Richard Grenell, briefly answered, "What can I do?"

"What can I do... You know well that I have been an activist all my life, not an analyst. We now have various analyses studying what he said and why he holds such an opinion," Kurti said in an interview with the local television Istok.

He stated that Kosovo and the U.S. have never had the kind of relationship they have now.

"We are acquiring American helicopters, after purchasing the Javelin missile system. We received the largest grant from America during my tenure. We have improved relations with the U.S., not only in diplomacy but also in other areas, from defense to energy," Kurti pointed out.

Asked whether he accepted autonomy for the Serbs in Kosovo under the Brussels and Ohrid agreements, he firmly denied it.

"What autonomy have I accepted? Along the border with Serbia, there are nine police stations; all the criminals are either in jail or have fled or have been killed. Have you been to Mitrovica? Have you been to Leposavic? It is very peaceful there now," said Kurti.
