PRISTINA, July 7 /ATA/ – The United States Ambassador in Pristina Jeffrey Hovenier affirmed the U.S. firm support for Kosovo.
The U.S. Embassy in Kosovo hosted a reception on occasion of the 247th U.S. Independence Day on Thursday evening.
Kosovo top state officials, President Vjosa Osmani, Prime Minister Albin Kurti and Assembly Speaker Glauk Konjufca attended the event.
However, U.S. Ambassador noted, as the United States and other international partners offer advice to Kosovo leaders, they ask things that seem to be or that are difficult and they take actions as a consequence of, or in response to decisions that are at odds with their advice.
U.S. Ambassador stated the Kosovo has made incredible progress since the country declared independence in 2008.
“Today, as we celebrate 247 years of the United States as a free, independent, sovereign state, we also acknowledge and celebrate together the 15 years since Kosovo achieved its independence, the remarkable progress the people of Kosovo have made in that short period of time, and the promise of additional progress to the benefit of all of the people of Kosovo,” U.S. diplomat said.
