Ilir Capuni, an albanian deputy in the Montenegrin Parliament, addressed recent debates concerning restrictions on Montenegrin officials entering Kosovo. Capuni stressed the necessity of respecting the decisions made by Kosovo’s institutions, asserting that such decisions must be acknowledged as those of a sovereign state. In a public statement, Capuni indicated that his understanding was that the actions taken by Kosovo were not intended to damage bilateral relations with Montenegro.
He elaborated, stating, “As a representative of the Albanian Alliance, I did not have the impression that anyone from the Republic of Kosovo wanted to damage relations with Montenegro. On the contrary, my understanding is that the competent bodies of Kosovo have assessed that there are security reasons for preventive action regarding specific persons.”
The deputy framed the situation by suggesting that the preventive measures appear to stem from internal security assessments within Kosovo. While acknowledging the friction caused by the entry restrictions, Capuni maintained a focus on state sovereignty.
His comments highlighted the tension between Montenegrin governmental movement and the security protocols established by the institutions of Kosovo. The statement suggests that discussions regarding the matter may proceed based on the criteria established by the relevant authorities in Kosovo.
