The Prime Minister of Kosovo Albin Kurti replicated to a declaration of the US Ambassador Philip Kosnett that “Kosovo has an obligation to set up the Association of Serb Municipalities”.

Kurti declared that the country already has a functional municipal association.

“I do not think that the legal and constitutional order in Kosovo allows having an association on ethnic bases. We might have an association of municipalities based on developmental or geographical bases”, said Kurti.

He also added that the government of Kosovo supports the rights of all minorities and is against marginalization and discrimination.

“I don’t seem to me that the request for an ethnic association over a decade old comes from simple people, but more like from our north neighbors”, said PM Kurti.

The US Ambassador to Kosovo, Philip Kosnett, said on Wednesday that Kosovo has an obligation to form the Association of Serb Municipalities, reiterating that states must respect the agreements they have signed for and deliver on their promises.
