In this meeting, he asked Kostlink to recognize Kosovo. Kurti thanked Kostilnik for the visit and for the support in visa liberalization for Kosovo and called on Slovakia to push forward this decision as soon as possible for the citizens of Kosovo. Prime Minister Kurti also expressed interest in expanding and deepening bilateral cooperation between the two countries and urged Slovakia to join the EU group that recognizes Kosovo.
