“We support starting negotiations for a Stabilisation and Association Agreement with Kosovo,” Paet stated. “The newly reached agreement between Kosovo and Serbia regarding northern Kosovo was a requirement for this to happen, so Estonia would like for the next step to be naming a date to start negotiations with Kosovo,” he noted.
The Estonian foreign minister also emphasised that it is currently very important for the agreement between Kosovo and Serbia to be implemented and for both sides to work towards that.
Paet stated that Estonia also supports the European Union establishing a visa waiver with Kosovo when the necessary obligations have been fulfilled.
Advancing bilateral relations with Kosovo is also important to Estonia, and the foreign minister of Kosovo is welcome to come visit Estonia.
