The U.S. Embassy in Pristina has reacted sharply after members of the CEC did not certify the Serb List to take part in the early elections for the Assembly of Kosovo.
Through a Facebook post, the U.S. Embassy said that VV’s efforts to block the certification of the Serb List for participation in Kosovo’s elections are short-sighted and divisive, KosovaPress reports.
In the embassy’s reaction, it is stated that such actions undermine Kosovo’s stability and U.S. interests, including the resumption of the strategic dialogue to advance opportunities for American and Kosovar businesses.
“VV’s efforts to block the certification that would allow the Serb List to take part in Kosovo’s elections are short-sighted and divisive. All citizens of Kosovo should be able to exercise their democratic rights. Such actions undermine Kosovo’s stability and U.S. interests, including the resumption of our strategic dialogue to advance opportunities for American and Kosovar businesses,” the statement says.
It should be recalled that yesterday, in a separate vote on the certification of political entities, the Serb List was not certified by the members of the CEC, receiving 2 votes in favor, 2 against, and 7 abstentions. /KosovaPress.
