Novosti: Egypt close to revoke recognition of Kosovo (Vecernje Novosti, Tanjug, B92)
Egypt is nearing to a decision to revoke recognition of Kosovo, and the final agreement on the matter could be made during the visit of the Egypt Foreign Affairs Minister to Belgrade, Vecernje Novosti daily reports today.
According to the daily, diplomatic struggle of Serbia to make Cairo 11th country in a row to revoke recognition of Kosovo is ongoing for months, and the strengthening of fraction in Egypt that believes the time has come to reconsider decision on Kosovo also goes in Serbia’s favor.
Egypt abstained during recent voting on Pristina’s Interpol bid, and Novosti adds if Cairo changes decision on Kosovo it could swiftly cause new “domino effect in revoking recognitions,” so the number of countries that recognize Kosovo could drop below 100, the daily concluded.
