Kosovo declares support for Ukraine

Kosovo's Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister, Donica Gjervalla-Schwarz said that Russia must fail in its large-scale military aggression against Ukraine. Otherwise, it threatens to expand the war on the European continent.

This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the Associated Press.

The Kosovo Foreign Minister noted that, despite the fact that Ukraine has not yet recognized the independence of this Balkan state from Serbia, which it proclaimed in 2008, Pristina fully supports Kyiv.

"Ukraine has not recognized the Republic of Kosovo as a state, but we really believe that we know exactly what Ukraine is going through," she said in an interview with AP.

Thus, Gerwalla-Schwartz added, Kosovo knows that "there is only one solution, not only for Ukraine, but also for Europe."

"Only Russia can lose the war, and Ukraine has to win this war," she emphasized in a conversation with journalists.

Otherwise, Gervalla-Schwarz added, Europe should prepare "for other conflicts on our continent."

"Although Kosovo is a small state with a very modest capacity to provide assistance, we have tried to be very helpful to Ukraine and have not hesitated to demonstrate our unconditional support and sympathy for the people and the state of Ukraine," she said.
