I welcome the #Kosovo government's decision to include high school diplomas in the process of diploma verification. The EU in Kosovo expects swift implementation, which would enable equitable access to education, professional development & employment opportunities.

Pleased that the Kosovo Assembly finally succeeded in passing the draft Law on Economic Recovery in the first reading. I hope that the MPs will consider the comments made by the EU and other international actors in their work on finalising this necessary legislation.

Today, I handed over the keys to new homes for 34 families in Gračanica/Graçanicë. Each key symbolizes a new beginning for families who have faced challenges. Proud of 🇪🇺's partnership with the 🇽🇰 Government & the municipality in offering lasting housing solutions.

Told @Avdullah today that European future is the only future for Kosovo. For this, strong political leadership & technical expertise on EU affairs needed. SAA/ERA & economic reforms key. EU IPA assistance major help to this effort. Agreed to have regular mtgs on European agenda.

Dr. #IbrahimRugova will always be remembered as a promoter of a peaceful and non-violent approach to achieving political goals, which is much needed these days. His legacy lives. May he rest in peace🕊️

6 years have passed since the Judgment of 🇽🇰 Constitutional Court, confirming the ownership of disputed land by Deçan/Dečane Monastery. I call on 🇽🇰 institutions to swiftly and fully implement the judgment & reconfirm their dedication to the rule of law as a guiding 🇪🇺 principle.

Freedom of expression & the safety of journalists must be protected! I condemn today's attack on a journalist of the Insajderi portal in Mitrovica North & call upon everyone to refrain from actions that could lead to violence and confrontation.

Met & listened to @fluturakusari & her concerns about continuous threats & smear campaign against her in social media. The EU follows closely the media environment& the rights of journalists in 🇽🇰 .Free & independent media are essential part of a democratic society.

🧵On the recent initiative to replace the official signs indicating the names of places in the north of #Kosovo , I appeal to the authorities to implement the process only after consulting with the Language Commissioner & by positively interpreting the Law on the Use of Languages.
