PRIŠTINA --
U.S. ambassador to Kosovo Christopher Dell said that Kosovo will become a member of the EU and NATO once it fulfills all conditions for doing so.
According to media in Priština, Dell said at a press conference of the Euro-Atlantic Club of Kosovo on Friday, that democracy, stabilization, and economic development must be priorities in the work of Priština’s institutions.
“The republic of Kosovo, as a democratic, prosperous and multi-ethnic state, in which everyone is equal under law, will receive a place in Europe and become a full-fledged member of the North Atlantic Alliance,” Dell said.
He added that all prerequisites must be met in order for this to occur, however.
“The construction of state institutions, then the integration of the community and its protection, economic development, rule of law, all should come before European integration,” Dell said.
