In an excellent reception and substantive meeting with the President of the Federal Republic of Germany, Mr. Frank-Walter Steinmeier we discussed the relations between our two countries, which have been and will always remain strategic.

At the meeting I thanked President Steinmeier for the continued support of Germany in good and difficult days and in particular for the support towards the consolidation of the international subjectivity of our Republic. I stressed the great need for the continuation of this support in Kosovo’s path towards membership in important international organizations, the provision of new recognitions, as well as visa liberalization for our citizens.

We discussed various topics today and the focus was also on cooperation to increase German foreign investment. Furthermore, we discussed Kosovo’s commitment in the field of regional cooperation, as well as the interest in signing some important bilateral agreements with Germany.

Discussing the importance of regional cooperation for the European perspective of the Western Balkans, I stressed that the Berlin Process has been a powerful impetus in this regard.

I emphasized that any other idea that aims to be parallel to the EU enlargement and the Berlin Process, undermining the principle of equal participation of the Western Balkan states, will not have the support of the Republic of Kosovo.

Endless gratitude for the encouraging words and the constructive and extremely promising conversation!

At the border crossings of Kosovo this morning the waits are not long.

The National Center for Border Management has announced that the waiting time to leave Kosovo through the Merdar border is two hours to two and a half hours, while the column at this border point is 1,100 meters long.

But the other border crossing points are not so busy.

To cross the Jarinje border, the wait is 10 to 15 minutes, while the column is 20 meters long.

At the Muchibaba border crossing the waits are 5 to 10 minutes, while there is no convoy at all.

There is no cargo at all border crossing points in Kosovo, as waits are 3 to 5 minutes.

On the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Diaspora of Kosovo on Twitter, it was announced that Minister Donika Gërvalla will pay a visit to Northern Macedonia.

During the announcement, in the Twitter post, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Northern Macedonia, Bujar Osmani, was confused, where in his place, a citizen with the same name was labeled, reports Zeri.info.

After a few minutes, Kosovo MFAD officials changed the post by labeling the official profile of Minister Osmani.

“Invited by her colleague from Northern Macedonia, Bujar Osmani, Minister of Foreign Affairs Gërvalla held excellent talks with President Pendarovski, Prime Minister Zaev, Speaker Xhaferi, and others. She also attended a ceremony for “named a street in honor of her late father, Jusuf Gërvalla,” the MFA’s Twitter post reads.

“Voice” has managed to save the wrong post before the upgrade.

Recall that the official Twitter page of the Ministry led by Donika Gërvalla, is known for such mistakes before, where before that the NATO flag was confused with that of the UN. / Voice

As we find out, a woman walking with a child on the quay reported to the police that she noticed a man who fell into the river near the My Place hotel. Immediately, the emergency services were alerted, which started searching the river on the stretch around the Railway Bridge, but no traces of the alleged drowned man were found.

Also, as we find out, there were no more eyewitnesses of the alleged tragedy, and so far no one has reported someone’s disappearance that would coincide with the time of the reported event.

DK The search continued today

It is not excluded that the accident really happened, considering that the Nisava is a fast and unpredictable river, so there were cases when the drowned people were never found.

One of them is a 40-year-old VJ who was dragged away by the motherland five years ago not far from the “Roda” shopping center. At the insistence of her relatives, who also addressed the highest state bodies, the search was organized on several occasions, but her body was not found.

Former Minister of Culture, Vlora Dumoshi has called the recent decision of the Government regarding pensions a step back from recovery.

According to Dumoshi, the decision of the Government of Albin Kurti to reduce pensions by 20 euros is a continuation of the failures of this government.

“They continue to fail in reducing pensions. They are one step behind the recovery. They have raised the standard of reducing the incomes that once disciplined others. They are dominating the decline. Here is what this government is creating, for example, there is no rise.” written Dumoshi.

She goes on to say that “government captors do not usually reflect on the most serious health conditions”.

“Every day they are extraordinarily lost. For the Republic they are showing that they are not ready to face the citizens. They are bringing the dream of power to the leadership without principle. The more they know, the more they can act,” Dumos wrote .

Her resignation came after today’s decision of the government to come to the aid of citizens and businesses. But, in the decision for pensioners and social schemes, the government has allocated 8.5 million euros, an amount which raises the income of these categories from the basic payment for 10 euros. From the Hoti government, these categories had benefited from an extra 30 euros basic payment. / Voice
