Finnish Ambassador: Kosovo urgently needs the formation of institutions

The Ambassador of Finland to Kosovo, Matti Nissinen, has stressed the importance of establishing functional institutions in Kosovo as soon as possible, given the global challenges and the need to move forward with internal reforms.

In an interview with local media, the ambassador said that delays in the constitution of the Assembly and the creation of the new government are a concern, especially at a time when international developments are dynamic and require continuous institutional commitment.

"The reforms that are needed here in Kosovo must move forward and cannot wait. Therefore, the sooner we have an Assembly and a new government, the better for all citizens," said Ambassador Nissinen.

His comments come after the next failure to constitution the Assembly of Kosovo, where Vetevendosje failed to elect Albulena Haxhiu to the post of president of the Assembly. The hearing has been postponed to Monday at 15:00.

Meanwhile, the Finnish ambassador also spoke about the bilateral relations between Kosovo and Finland, describing them as excellent and built on a strong foundation of cooperation over the years. He also confirmed the visit of the President of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani, to Finland next week, which, according to him, will be a key moment to further deepen relations between the two countries and discuss issues of high importance such as European security and economic cooperation.

"Bilateral relations are excellent. They are extremely warm and deep, and date back many years. I am very happy to be able to build on this good foundation that we have. An example that further highlights this excellent bilateral relationship will actually be next week, when President Osmani will visit Finland for a working visit. This is another opportunity for us to further deepen the relationship and have concrete results from this visit. I think it's a great opportunity, for example, to talk about urgent European security issues, to discuss economic cooperation, and how to increase trade between our two countries." concluded Nissinen
