An economic expert from Pristina, Mustafa Kadriaj, told Kosovo Online that the Government of Kosovo, back in 2003 when it inherited the euro, had determined that the Serbian dinar and Albanian lek were not valid currencies in Kosovo.

“As Kosovo, we would like to have our own currency, but we operate under the regime imposed on Kosovo by the European Union. In this regard, I believe that Kosovo should work with the European currency if we claim to want to be a part of the EU“, Kadriaj says, in response to the announcement that from February 1, according to the decision of the Central Bank of Kosovo Committee, the euro would be the only currency allowed for cash transactions and in the payment system of Kosovo.
