But we don\u2019t agree on everything\u2026When it comes to the Open Balkan initiative, the political scene in Kosovo has its own reservations, including us, but we believe that we have your understanding. We believe that Kosovo should be equal in all regional roundtables,\u201d \u2013 said Krasniqi.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Krasniqi emphasized that taking up such economic initiatives in the Western Balkans, where many political issues remain unresolved \u2013 like the one between Kosovo and Serbia \u2013 becomes difficult if they aren\u2019t mediated by our partners in the EU.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn cases when Serbia tries to violate Kosovo\u2019s sovereignty, we can\u2019t simply look past this and think that things can just be solved on an economic level. But this doesn\u2019t mean that we are against regional cooperation. And we hope that in the future, we can find a solution for Kosovo so that it can one day feel equal,\u201d \u2013 said the PDK chair.<\/p>\n<p><strong>YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/albania\/2022\/01\/13\/president-meta-slams-open-balkan-an-ambiguous-initiative-imposed-from-above\/\">President Meta slams Open Balkan: An ambiguous initiative imposed from above<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/albania\/2022\/01\/10\/great-britains-special-envoy-stuart-peach-we-support-open-balkan\/\">Great Britain\u2019s Special Envoy, Stuart Peach: We support \u2018Open Balkan\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2021\/12\/08\/us-sanctions-serbian-criminal-group-in-kosovo\/\">US sanctions Serbian organized crime group based in northern Kosovo<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<div class=\"spot-im-replies-count\" data-post-id=\"eneu29359\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"spot-im-replies-count\" data-post-id=\"eneu29053\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The political scene in Kosovo has maintained a unanimous stance when it comes to the Open Balkan initiative, and we need the Albanian government to understand this and where we\u2019re coming from.
