Kosovo officially opens embassy offices in Jerusalem

“Having in mind that senior officials of Kosovo were unable to attend the embassy opening in Jerusalem due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Foreign Affairs Ministry of Kosovo has tasked the Charge d’Affairs in Israel to unveil the plate along with Minister (of Foreign Affairs of Israel Gabriel) Ashkenazi and to put it next to the ‘state flag on the building of Kosovo embassy in Jerusalem’,” said the statement, adding that in this way Kosovo fulfilled the obligation from February 1 when it established diplomatic relations with Israel.

An agreement on diplomatic relations between Kosovo and Israel was reached in Washington on September 4 2020 within the Washington agreement on economic normalisation of relations between Kosovo and Serbia, signed in presence of then US President Donald Trump.
