The European Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee is expected to vote on Wednesday on a report on Kosovo, which regrets the consequences of the political stalemate and delays in the country's reform processes.
The report, drafted by MEP Riho Terras, assesses that Kosovo has lost an important year due to the political blockade, while warning that the coming months may also be affected by the electoral process.
The document emphasizes that this situation could jeopardize the timely implementation of reforms and the full benefit from the European Union's Growth Plan.
The report supports Kosovo's application for candidate country status and calls on EU member states to advance the relevant procedures.
The decision to lift the measures against Kosovo, which are considered unjustified and have a negative impact on Kosovo society, is also welcomed.
The document reaffirms the importance of dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia as part of the European integration process. It also demands that those responsible for the terrorist attack in Banjska be brought to justice, expressing concern about the lack of criminal proceedings against Milan Radoicic.
The report is considered an important political message about Kosovo's European perspective and the need to continue reforms on the path towards integration into the European Union./RTK
