Kosovo’s Minister for Dialogue, Edita Tahiri, said in an interview that the European Union has made it clear that the telecom agreement needs to be implemented the way the parties agreed to earlier in Brussels. However, she admitted that there are still some issues that have to be “finalized”, particularly that pertaining to dialing code for Kosovo. Tahiri said the recent reports that the site where a mosque stood in the northern part of Mitrovica is being used to construct a tennis court as part of the project for revitalization of the Ibër/Ibar bridge in Mitrovica were false. She noted that the revitalization plans do not include the parcel where the mosque, destroyed in April of 1999, originally stood. Furthermore, Tahiri claimed that the agreement reached on 25 August 2015 with the Serbian side provides full protection for the mosque. “We timely made sure that the plan for revitalization of the Ibër bridge does not include the Mitrovica mosque plot”, said Tahiri.
