The Minister for Foreign Affairs and Diaspora of Kosovo, Donika Gervalla, said on Monday that Kosovo will not look for ways to implement an association, “which violates the Constitution of the country”.

“What will be the course of the talks in Brussels within the framework of the final agreement, what will be the concessions that Serbia will be willing to make in relation to the rights of minorities in Serbia, and many, many other topics, remains to be discussed in the framework of the dialogue”, Gervalla said in a joint conference with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Slovenia, Tanja Fajon, when he was asked about the implementation of the agreement for the Association of municipalities with a Serbian majority.

“However, the Association for which the parties have agreed in Brussels, but for which the parties have agreed to be implemented only after it has passed the Constitutional Court of Kosovo, cannot be implemented because it violates the constitution and a Government, something that he should never have done, is to take decisions that violate the laws and the constitution of the country”, Gervalla added.

Kosovo and Serbia reached an agreement on the Association in 2013 and then in 2015 on the principles for its establishment. In 2015, the Constitutional Court of Kosovo found that the agreement is not in full harmony with the Constitution.

Serbia demands that Kosovo implement the agreements reached, but the Government of Kosovo has come out declaring that it is against a mono-ethnic association.
