In an interview for Radio France International (RFI)Kurti has voiced hope that the Student List, which according to the reports came out victorious in the 25 October parliamentary elections in Serbia, will choose a new approach towards Kosovo and commit to normalising relations between the two countries.

He has stressed that it remains to be seen what position this list will hold after forming the government, but has called for it to accept political reality and not see Kosovo as a returnable issue.

The recognition of independence is the fundamental test for democracy in Serbia, Kurti has declared, adding that democracies should not face each other but co-operate for common interests.

In the same interview, Kurti has also criticised Serbian President Aleksandar Vuciq, recalling his political past as minister at the time of Slobodan Milosevic’s regime.

Kurt’s message comes at a time when attention is focused on new political developments in Serbia and on the possibility that changes in the political scene there affect dialogue and reports with Kosovo. 

Kurti has stressed his country’s desire to join the European Union.
