Trump’s Special Envoy Urges New Kosovo Government to Drop 100% Tariffs on

US President Donald Trump’s special envoy for Serbia and Kosovo, Richard Grenell, on Tuesday urged the new Kosovo government to abolish punitive tariffs on Serbian goods that have blocked negotiations between the two, the Associated Press reported.

Grenell, who is the US ambassador to Germany, said in an emailed statement to the news agency that “we expect the tariffs to be dropped immediately.”

“We made clear to all the [Kosovo] party leaders that dropping the tariffs was in the best interest of Kosovo and its economy, and the desire to attract new businesses,” Grenell told the AP.

The new Kosovo prime ministerAlbinKurti told the parliament on Monday the 100 percent tariffs won’t be dropped and that Kosovo will insist on “reciprocity” in its trade with Serbia. He did not elaborate.
