These acts go against all international agreements, which aim to ensure order and stability in this part of the region.<\/p>\n<p>We call on Serbia to withdraw all armed forces from their border with Kosovo and work instead on immediately de-escalating the situation. We urge all involved actors to exercise self-restraint and immediately head to the dialogue, as the only way to walk forward and resolve the matters that have remained at a standstill with a spirit of cooperation. Albania is unequivocally committed to these matters, through its bilateral and multilateral efforts,\u201d \u2013 reads the written reaction of the Albanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2021\/09\/25\/serbian-military-aircraft-seen-flying-over-jarinje-checkpoint\/\">Serbian military aircraft seen flying over Jarinje checkpoint<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/albania\/2021\/09\/25\/albin-kurti-attacks-in-northern-kosovo-will-not-be-tolerated\/\">Albin Kurti: Attacks in Northern Kosovo will not be tolerated<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2021\/09\/25\/it-takes-a-fool-to-trigger-a-war-says-serbian-interior-minister\/\">It takes a fool to trigger a war, says Serbian interior minister<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs in Albania has reacted to the situation that is continuing to escalate in Northern Kosovo.
