Egypt recognized Kosovo only verbally, without any paper or note, in June 2013, three days before the fall of the Muslim Brotherhood, Politika daily writes today.

According to the daily, it represents a rather weak form of recognition, and even the then Ministry of Foreign Affairs was against such decision, adding there was no exchange on notes between the Egyptian and Kosovo foreign ministries, and the recognition was made only through a statement of the then spokesperson of the ministry, Badr Abdel Aty.
