“Up until this point, Albin Kurti has had a tendency to want to put on a show regarding the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue,” said the chair of the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK), Memli Krasniqi, during an exclusive interview for Euronews Albania.
According to Krasniqi, the prime minister is heading to the dialogue with Serbia, with goals that are similar to those of the leaders of PDK, regarding the dissolution of the conflict and mutual recognition, as well as the respect for the sovereignty of Kosovo.
He added that the dialogue process should be closely coordinated in collaboration with the US and European partners, all the while protecting Kosovo’s “sovereignty, territorial integrity and internal regulations”.
In addition, Krasniqi declared that PDK will be offering its support to any agreement that enables mutual recognition between Kosovo and Serbia, while ensuring Kosovo’s membership into International Organizations starting with the UN.
However, according to PDK’s leader, the forced protagonism of Kurti and Rama is playing a negative and damaging role for the Albania-Kosovo relations, putting the majority of responsibility onto Kosovo’s prime minister.
“I believe that our rapport with Albania has been damaged exactly due to the approach of the prime minister of Kosovo, with regards to institutional leaders in Albania,” declared Krasniqi.
According to Krasniqi, Kurti’s involvement in Albania’s electoral campaign on April 25th has also had a negative contribution.
“Kosovo’s prime ministers should look at Albania not only as their partner but as the first country to offer them support on all matters that intermingle with our national interests,” declared Krasniqi, while adding that he is soon expected to meet with PM Rama.
