Albania supports the decision of the Government of the Republic of Kosovo to reject the six-point plan, said Albania’s Foreign Minister Lulzim Basha during a statement for the Albanian media in Tirana.Foreign Minister of Albania Lulzim Basha said that Tirana is carefully following with serious concern the latest developments in Kosovo.
“Prishtina has its aspirations to continue the implementation of the Ahtisaari Plan. Albania fully supports Prishtina’s stance against the six-point plan and calls for quick deployment of EULEX in the entire territory of Kosovo,” said Basha.
Albania’s Foreign Minister also criticized the way of dialogue has been conducted between UN, Belgrade by largely ignoring Prishtina. “Kosovo is a sovereign country and has its legitimate power guaranteed by its sovereign constitution to accept or reject such decisions. Albania supports their decision to categorically reject this plan.”
This is the first reaction coming from a high Albania Government official regarding the six-point plan issue.
