Kosovo will enter the Council of Europe, BiH received the green light from the EC
The Belgrade-Prishtina dispute and the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina are the points in the Balkans that, according to the latest intelligence report made public, are of concern to Western partners. Diplomatic efforts to resolve at least some of the open issues have intensified. High representatives of the USA and the EU visiting Prishtina with recommendations, but also with conditions. Kurti's government ordered the return of the land to the Visoki Decani monastery, and in return it will receive membership in the Council of Europe. Journalist Ilir Aydini from Prishtina talks about these topics in
Labyrinth.
Bosnia and Herzegovina, on the other hand, received the green light from the European Commission, but that recommendation remains to be passed by the Council at a summit scheduled for March 21 and 22. With the journalist Adisa Imamović from Sarajevo, we talked about the expectations of the citizens, about the lack of possibility of an agreement between the political actors in BiH, but also about the political moves of Milorad Dodik that go in the direction of destabilizing the already fragile situation in Bosna and Herzegovina.
