Serbia, Bosnia Hercegovina, and Kosovo are the only countries in the region that aren\u2019t part of NATO. Keeping peace and stability in the Balkans means keeping peace and stability in the entire European continent,\u201d -said Osmani.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, she said that she is very concerned with the increase in the number of weapons coming into Serbia, which is why according to her, the right decision would be to become a member of NATO.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe remain very concerned that Serbia has increased the number of weapons it is buying and this proves its goals in the region. I believe that membership in NATO is crucial. I want to make an appeal to the four NATO member states that still haven\u2019t recognized Kosovo, to do so, because we shouldn\u2019t continue looking at this only from the perspective of internal politics,\u201d \u2013 said Kosovo\u2019s president.<\/p>\n<p>Osmani also called on NATO and EU member states to recognize the independence of Kosovo.<\/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\/2022\/04\/18\/kurti-on-attacks-in-mitrovica-they-wanted-to-kill-our-officers\/\">Kurti on attacks in Mitrovica: They wanted to kill our officers<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2022\/04\/18\/21-reporters-killed-ukrainian-journalist-finds-shelter-in-kosovo\/\">\u201921 reporters killed\u2019, Ukrainian journalist finds shelter in Kosovo \u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"title-post\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/euronews.al\/en\/kosovo\/2022\/04\/16\/kosovo-police-confirm-another-attack-in-the-countrys-north\/\">Kosovo Police confirm another attack in the country\u2019s north<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kosovo\u2019s president Vjosa Osmani, declared that Russia seeks to destabilize the Balkans through Serbia.
