The EU recognizes that the elections were held in line with the legal framework of Kosovo and that efforts were undertaken for them to take place in a smooth and orderly manner.


At the same time, the EU regrets that not all parties and communities made use of their democratic right to participate and vote in the elections. 


The very low turnout, in particular among Kosovo Serb citizens, shows that this process is not and cannot be considered business as usual. 


Participation in electoral processes has the aim to ensure that the voices of the communities the elected leaders represent, will be heard. 


Since the Kosovo Serbs left Kosovo institutions in the north of Kosovo in November 2022, the EU has been consistently engaging with both Parties to facilitate their return. 


These elections do not offer a long-term political solution for these municipalities. This can only happen through permanent return of Kosovo Serbs to the institutions, and for Kosovo to enable this return. The work on the establishment of the Association/Community of Serb majority Municipalities needs to be finalised as soon as possible.


It is imperative that we urgently restore a situation where Kosovo Serbs participate actively in local governance, policing and judiciary in the north of Kosovo. There is an urgent need for a serious dialogue between the Government of Kosovo and Kosovo Serbs in the north to this end. So far little progress has been made. Therefore, we need both sides to play their role and fulfil their commitments. 


The Agreement on the path to normalization of relations between Kosovo and Serbia is the right platform to achieve this objective.

BREAKING

The Committee of Ministers accepts Kosovo's application to join the Council of Europe.

Serbia's MFA was in Strasbourg last week & tried hard to prevent this from happening.

Now Kosovo's application is sent to the Parliamentary Assembly. pic.twitter.com/QviA2XWEvj

Ova odluka Abazovićeve Vlade spada u jednu od najsramnijih u crnogorskoj istoriji i dodatno usložnjava društveno političke prilike kako u Crnoj Gori tako i u regionu, kazao je Knežević
Danas se zvanična Crna Gora u ostavci na čelu sa Dritanom Abazovićem glasajući na Komitetu ministara da tzv. Kosovo uđe u Savjet Evrope, pridružila onoj Crnoj Gori Mila Đukanovića i Duška Markovića koji su 2008. protivno volji 85 % građana priznali ovu UČK tvorevinu, kazao je predsjednik Demokratske narodne partije i jedan od lidera Demokratskog fronta Milan Knežević.
