President of Kosovo, Hashim Thaci, said in an interview to RTK that there will be no visa liberalisation for Kosovo until the Assembly ratifies border demarcation agreement with Montenegro. “If ratification does not happen this month, then there would immediately be liberalisation but if this is delayed for another 2-3 years, liberalisation will also be postponed that much,” Thaci said. He called on Kosovo Assembly members to put the interests of Kosovo before party ones.
Speaking about the creation of Kosovo Armed Forces, Thaci said there is no time to waste and the issue needs to be immediately put to vote at the Assembly. He said efforts to convince the Serbian List to vote the bill are being exhausted and “we cannot wait for Serbia’s mood to change.” However, he suggested one last attempt to win the Serbian List’s support should be made. If this fails, Thaci said Kosovo Assembly should endorse changes to the mandate of the Kosovo Security Force by giving it a military mission.
