The Acting Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, received in a meeting the bipartisan delegation of two US congressmen, Keith Self, Chairman of the Subcommittee on Europe in the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives, and Suhas Subramanyam, Member of the Subcommittee on Military and Foreign Affairs.
One of the main topics that Acting Prime Minister Kurti spoke about was defense, namely peace and security in the region. He thanked the delegation for their support for NATO membership, in particular for Resolutions 1246 and 1250 of the House of Representatives, which support the aspirations of the Republic of Kosovo to become part of the North Atlantic Alliance and call for American forces to continue contributing within the framework of KFOR.
Acting Prime Minister Kurti also emphasized the coherence in foreign policy. He also discussed Kosovo’s investments in defense and other topics, such as the development of technology in the country, where he spoke about the increase in economic cooperation in this field and in trade in general, as well as reforms in the field of education.
Before Pristina, the congressmen visited the Presheva Valley. In this context, Acting Prime Minister Kurti said that there should be comparable rights for minorities in all Western Balkan countries.
