The Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, hosted the French Ambassador to Kosovo, Olivier Guerot, and the German Deputy Ambassador to Kosovo, Matthias Conrad, in a meeting this morning.
In this meeting, the latest developments in the three municipalities in the north of the country after the first day of work of the new mayors and the violence inflicted on KFOR soldiers, Kosovo policemen and journalists by Serbian extremist groups were discussed.
They agreed on the vital importance of de-escalating the situation. The Prime Minister informed them about the high professionalism and indisputable integrity of the Kosovo Police in managing the situation without any mistakes or defects.
The full establishment of the rule of law in the four municipalities in the north of Kosovo is necessary both for the removal of criminal elements and for an open and fair campaign before free and democratic elections in the future. The need for the full, swift and unconditional implementation of the Basic Agreement of February 27 and its Annex was also emphasized.
Prime Minister Kurti thanked the ambassador and deputy ambassador for the continued interest of France and Germany and their contribution.
