Travesty and a tragedy! Ilija Ilic, a talented Kosovan Serb football player is invited to play for #Kosovo national junior football team. Within a week, both his mother and father were fired from their jobs as teacher and civil servant, by local Serbian authorities.

Brilliant exchange & full accordance on the way ahead. US & Kosovo enjoy excellent relations & we’ll cont. deepening them. Thank you Secretary Pompeo for your commitment to support Kosovo’s full integration in the Euro-Atlantic family. Kosovo is blessed w/ the trust & partnership of US

The EU needs to give political weight to its involvement in the Kosovo-Serbia dialogue. Downgrading and outsourcing its role to an Envoy without credibility won’t be helpful. The EU should support all efforts leading to a historic agreement & work with partners that can deliver.

Across New York, Italian restaurants, shops are actually owned & managed by Albanians from Balkans. My own cousins own Italian restaurants from Midtown to New Jersey. A nice article in The New York Times on “How Little Italy became little Albanian Mexican Italy” - nyti.ms/2IJiq4W

Will the Department of State statement make VetonSurroi end his speculations. There is only one risk that countering fake-news means leaving Surroi w/out food for spreading his deep rooted anger against Hashim Thaçi. From that perspective he would call it undiplomatic. It does not fit him

Dyson has designed and built an entirely new ventilator, called the "CoVent," since founder James Dyson received a call 10 days ago from UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson. "This new device can be manufactured quickly, efficiently and at volume," he said cnn.it/33ULobZ

Ambassador, did you inquire whatever happened with almost 1000 bodies that were hiden in Batajnica, dug up from #Kosovo massacre sites in a macabre “sanitation” operation carried by Serbian government in Serbia & Serbian parts of Bosnia? Anyone arrested. Any memorial there?

Mature, reconciliatory, personal message from President of #Kosovo Hashim Thaçi tonight. Main news will be announcement of resignation if charges confirmed but otherwise tone was towards maintaining sanctity of alliance between #Kosovo with US & Europe. gazetaexpress.com/adresimi-i-plo…
