Sofia Claims Kosovo’s Gorani as ‘Bulgarian Minority’ (Balkan Insight)
Encouraged by Albania’s recent recognition of a Bulgarian minority, Bulgaria hopes for a similar result in Kosovo – although the Gorani community is claimed also by Serbia and Macedonia.
Bulgaria is pushing for official recognition of a Bulgarian minority in Kosovo, not only as a follow-on to the recent recognition of a Bulgarian minority in Albania, but as part of “regular state policy”, the head of the State Agency for Bulgarians, Petar Haralampiev, told BIRN on Friday.
