U.S. Embassy on the Government of Kosovo: We need a partner who understands the need to avoid destabilizing actions

The U.S. Embassy in Kosovo stated that it wants to move forward with the current government but added that it needs a committed partner who understands the importance of avoiding destabilizing actions, Koha reports.

In a response to Koha, the U.S. Embassy said that Chargé d’Affaires Anu Pratipati conveyed U.S. concerns and positions during regular meetings with the acting Prime Minister, Albin Kurti.

“The United States will always be a close friend of the people of Kosovo, and we are fully committed to our partnership. However, the United States encourages partners to work constructively in order to ensure stability and security. We want to move forward with the government in a technical mandate, but we need a partner who understands the need to avoid destabilizing actions and who is committed to advancing regional stability and protecting the rights of all Kosovo’s citizens. We will continue to evaluate the actions of the current government. We have nothing further to add on this matter,” the Embassy stated.

The Embassy did not comment on the meetings Pratipati held with opposition leaders.
