Novosti: Egypt to revoke recognition of Kosovo? (Vecernje Novosti, B92)

One of the main topics of a visit of the Egypt's parliamentary delegation to Belgrade would be revoking decision to recognize Kosovo, Belgrade based daily Vecerenje Novosti writes today.

According to daily’s diplomatic sources there is a will in Egypt to change the decision made five years ago, but they are awaiting for the right moment.

Novosti recalled Egypt only verbally recognized southern Serbian province on 26 June 2013 while the Muslim Brotherhood was still in power, however without sending a diplomatic note.

A few days later political changes have occurred, and five years after no diplomatic relations were established, and embassies are neither open in Cairo nor in Prisitna.

Novosti also added, the line that was against Kosovo recognition is close to the current Egypt President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
