Spain welcomes the agreement with Serbia, but does not change its position: we

Many countries have recognized the independence of Kosovo announced in 2008, but there are those that do not and that are part of the European Union.

One of them is Spain along with four other countries. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Iberian country has told "RTV Dukagjinin" that they still maintain the position of not recognizing Kosovo's independence, which they have described as one-sided.

"Spain maintains its position as not recognizing the unilateral declaration of independence adopted by Pristina in 2008 and strongly supports a mutually acceptable solution within the framework of the EU Facilitated Dialogue", the Spanish MFA responded .

In their answer, it is also stated that Spain supports the Ohrid agreement, proposed by the EU for the normalization of relations between Kosovo and Serbia, and the implementation of agreements alongside the previous ones is essential.

"In this regard, Spain welcomes the recent agreements for the normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina, as well as recognizes and supports the efforts of EU High Representative Borrell and EU Special Representative Lajcak. The implementation of these agreements, alongside the previous agreements, is now essential, as this is an opportunity that should not be lost," he said.

Apart from Spain, Kosovo's citizenship has not been recognized by Cyprus, Greece, Romania and Slovakia, which are part of the EU.
