Congratulating all Kosovo’s people on the country’s second anniversary, Her Majesty’s Ambassador in Kosovo, Andy Sparkes CMG, stated:
“In the year ahead, I hope that the Kosovo authorities and we, the international community, can work closely to achieve real progress and improved quality of life for all Kosovo’s communities, building on peace to create prosperity.
The ambition of Kosovo is shared with its neighbours in the Western Balkans – a common European future. The UK is committed to working with all in the region in pursuit of this goal”.
