Kosovo’s recent actions against and closure of Serbia-supported structures, conducted in the midst of the election campaign for the 9 February parliamentary elections, go against its obligations towards the European Union under the normalization process, said the European Union (EU).
EULEX is monitoring the conduct of these recent actions in accordance with its mandate, said a statement issued by Spokesperson for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Anitta Hipper.
It said that the status of Serbia-supported structures is foreseen to be resolved through the EU-facilitated Dialogue.
Kosovo must demonstrate and remain consistent with its obligations under the EU-facilitated Dialogue and its recent recommitment to it, reads the statement.
While, as stated in the 2024 Council conclusions on enlargement, the EU will gradually lift the measures vis-à-vis Kosovo in parallel with further steps by Kosovo to de-escalate the tensions in the north, these actions are not conducive to this goal.
