U.S. Congressman Elliot Engel said in an interview to RTV21 today that many good things have happened in Kosovo this week, especially with the decision on the transformation of the Kosovo Security Force into an army. “I always dedicate love and energy to the people of Kosovo and Albania. A lot of good things have happened this week, especially in Kosovo. After many years, they were able to form their army in Kosovo. I think this is an important and very good step forward. I think every country should have its army and Kosovo is no different in this regard,” he said. Engel said he supports the Kosovo government’s decision to introduce a 100-percent tax on goods from Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. “There were also some difficulties this week, including the tax on Serbia. I support Kosovo’s right to set such a tax, the Prime Minister’s right to set this tax, because I don’t believe Serbia is meeting its obligations. I am very upset by the fact that every time Kosovo tries to join an international organization, Serbia tries to block it. This happened with INTERPOL and with other organizations,” he said. Engel also said the European Union should give visa liberalization to Kosovo right away, “not next year, not in 2020”.
