International civilian representative in Kosovo Pieter Feith said in Washington that considerable progress had been made in Kosovo lately. He added that the reforms must continue, the International Civilian Office (ICO) in Pristina announced on Monday. “Considerable progress made in Kosovo” Feith, who is in the U.S. for consultations at key institutions in Washington, said he would need to inform officials at the State Department and other officials of the Obama administration about that progress. The press release from the International Civilian Office in Pristina said Feith had pointed out the need for the government of Kosovo and its international partners to focus on reforms continually. “The citizens and people of Kosovo are devoted to approaching European and Euro-Atlantic structures, and we can best support those efforts through reform,” Feith said, adding that important steps had been taken in “decentralization and forming a constitutional court”. According to him, “the challenge remained to ensure that good leadership and respect for rights, especially those of minority communities, become the main characteristics of Kosovo”. According to the press release, Feith said he was grateful to the U.S. for strong and continuing support to the people of Kosovo, including support to the work of the International Civilian Office. He went on to say that his office was proud to have employees from America and Europe, and that their contributions were appreciated. Beside heading the ICO, Feith holds another office in Kosovo – that of EU's special representative.
