The Prime Minister of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, said that the Government headed by him does not have a problem with the Serbs of Kosovo, but with the Government of Serbia.
Speaking at the "The Western Balkans 2024" summit, on Tuesday in Pristina, Kurti said that the integration of Kosovo Serbs in the country's institutions is a primary issue for him.
" The problem we have has nothing to do with the Serbs. We have a problem with Belgrade, which did not distance itself from either the Milosevic of the past or the Putin of the present ," Kurti said, referring to the former Yugoslav president and the current Russian president.
Serbs in the north of Kosovo, influenced by Belgrade and its parallel structures in Kosovo, constantly oppose the authority of the Government in Pristina.
They often organize protests or boycott the decisions of the Kosovar authorities.
In November 2022, they walked out of Kosovo's institutions in the north, as a sign of opposition to the country's Government's decision to re-register cars with illegal Serbian license plates.
Kurti said on Monday that Kosovo is already converting drivers' licenses, diplomas and car license plates, as a step towards the integration of the Serbian community.
However, his Government is under international pressure to form the Association of municipalities with a Serbian majority.
For this association, Kosovo and Serbia agreed as early as 2013.
The agreement between them was also approved in the Assembly of Kosovo, but the Constitutional Court later found that it was unconstitutional, since it did not include other ethnic groups.
Despite the guarantees from the USA and the European Union, Kosovo did not implement the agreement for fear that such an association would affect the functioning of the state.
Serbia, which considers Kosovo still part of itself, has not similarly implemented a series of agreements with Kosovo./REL
