Kosovo and Albania have only made problems for themselves by not coming to the South-East European Cooperation Process (SEECP) Summit in Sarajevo and have struck a heavy blow to regional cooperation, Bosnian Foreign Minister Igor Crnadak said on Monday, adding that he has no idea what prompted Pristina not to come to the Summit, TV N1 reports.

"I still hope we'll get things back to where they were before, and that Kosovo will abolish tariffs on Bosnian products and that they'll return to the talks. We didn't provoke this. Pristina indented to take part in the ministerial meeting, but I don't know what happened in the meantime. What happened in the night between Saturday and Sunday and what made Behgjet Pacolli's delegation change its mind – that I don't know," Crnadak said.

During its one-year presidency over the SEECP, Bosnia and Herzegovina organized many events aimed at further incentivizing South-East European cooperation as well as the regions further integration into the EU.

"Regional interconnection was significantly damaged by Pristina's boycott of the Summit and Tirana's support for Kosovo decision. That was completely wrong, and everyone who commented on it said it was wrong and that they should have come," Crnadak noted. He recalled that despite being subject to 100 percent tariffs Pristina imposed on goods from Bosnia and Herzegovina in November last year, Bosnia was ready to be a good host to their delegation.
