Mogherini: Kosovo must abolish duties immediately (BETA)

EU High Representative Federica Mogherini said on Wednesday that the Kosovo government must immediately abolish the decisions on imposing duties on Serbian and Bosnian goods.

According to the Beta news agency, the EU foreign policy chief said in a statement on Nov. 21 that decision of the Kosovo government to raise the duty on Serbian and Bosnian goods to 100 percent made the situation worse, after Pristina imposed 10-percent duties last week.

The Kosovo government must immediately revoke those decisions, Mogherini said.

She also said that the 100-percent duties were an apparent violation of the Central European Free Trade Agreement (CEFTA) and the spirit of the Stabilization and Association Agreement (SAA) between the EU and Kosovo.
