The British Ambassador to Kosovo, Ruairi O’Connell, said in an interview with the news website today that the “Pronto” affair is not the only evidence of corruption within Kosovo’s institutions. “We need to combat the culture of nepotism where people are employed based on family ties,” he said. O’Connell said the Kosovo government should seriously address the fight against terror. The British Ambassador also said that Kosovo deserves visa liberalisation but that it needs to meet the requirements first. On the border demarcation with Montenegro, O’Connell said Kosovo and Montenegro have good relations and stressed that Podgorica recognised Kosovo’s independence only months after its declaration and despite problems with Belgrade. “I find it strange that there is talk about war with Montenegro,” he added.
