Sen. Paul in a statemented posted in Twitter said that he encourages Kosovo to turn a page and work with Serbia for a lasting peace. “I support peace and commerce with all.

He was retweeting a statement of another US Senator, David Perdue who on Tuesday urged Kosovo authorities to drop tariffs on Serbian goods. “For over two decades, US forces have helped keep the peace between Kosovo & Serbia. Now, with historic progress in sight, Kosovo must do its part & abolish all duties imposed on Serbia. If Kosovo is not fully committed to peace, then the US should reconsider its presence there,” Perdue said. His statement was retweeted later also by Donald Trump’s son who said time has come for US troops leave Kosovo. “Agree. There are 650 US troops in Kosovo. Time to bring them home,” Donald Trump Jr. said retweeting Perdue’s statement.

President Trump’s special envoy on Kosovo-Serbia dialogue, Richard Grenell, said the US does not support half-measures of Kosovo government and urged Kurti to fully abolish tariffs and resume dialogue with Serbia. /GazetaExpress/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SERBIAN NEWS NETWORK" group.
