We wish to support our people in Kosovo to stay and live here, and offer support to those who are ready to stay and preserve themselves.

Kosovo’s Minister without portfolio, Edita Tahiri, said on Friday that as of last year, Serbia is blocked because it’s not respecting the agreements reached with Kosovo. She said that any agreement made with Serbia was signed on the principle of reciprocity. But, according to her, there are delays on the implementation of agreements because of the history between Kosovo and Serbia.  "Sometimes it is not good to mention this but I say that Serbia committed genocide in Kosovo,” Tahiri said.

“Kosovo has committed itself that Kosovo Security Force troops would not embark in the north of Kosovo without a preliminary permission from NATO,” this is NATO’s official response to Radio Kosova.

This office also rejected the claims of Serbian officials for existence of an agreement between NATO and Serbia which does not allow embarking of KSF as well as the future Armed Forces troops in the northern municipalities.

The President of Kosovo, Atifete Jahjaga met on Thursday with young girls from Kosovo and Serbia, participating in the Peace Academy for Girls, and answered their questions on the role of women. Jahjaga commended the girls who are part of this platform of building bridges of cooperation and sustainable peace.

Serbian has invested in last five decades more than USD 17 billion in road, energy and telecommunication infrastructure and economy in Kosovo.

Agreement reached in Brussels to stop privatization of Serbian companies in northern Kosovo, should stop illegal sale of Serbian property, like the one that is threatening to Trepca and Brezovica.

Edita Tahiri, Minister for dialogue of the Kosovo government, said for Kallxo.com that the issue of Kosovo assets was never discussed in the meetings between the Kosovar and Serbian parties in Brussels.

“Such issue was not opened at the meeting of the prime ministers either. Our position on the Ujman/Gazivoda issue, respectively on all Kosovo assets is that we do not discuss them with anyone under any circumstances,” said Tahiri.

International reactions towards the decision of Belgrade to forbid the visit of Kosovo’s Deputy Prime Minister, Hashim Thaci, continue.

Ambassador Frank Wisner, who was also chief negotiator of the U.S. State Department during the Vienna negotiations, gave an extensive statement for Kosova Press, where he condemned Belgrade’s behavior as “an unfortunate example for a lost opportunity to advance the relations between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia.”

The President of Serbia Tomislav Nikolić said today that it is not good that Pristina is encouraged by anyone to think that independence is the final goal of the ongoing dialogue in Brussels. During his talks with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Latvia Edgars Rinkevics Nikolić also said that Serbia is absolutely dedicated to its EU path and that Brussels should open first chapters in pre-accession negotiations with Serbia.
