Vienna, 28 January 2019 – The Minister of European Integration of Kosovo, Dhurata Hoxha, during her stay in Austria met with the Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Karin Kneissl, to discuss about Kosovo’s integration process and visa liberalization in particular.
“I informed her closely about the integration process, the achievements and challenges, the reforms undertaken and the implementation of the SAA.
