"Washington is focused on economic development & jobs - we believe this has been ignored in the dialogue. But we can’t help when the Kosovo Govt’s tariffs continue to hurt Kosovo. They must be dropped first. Also, political issues will be solved by the two sides - not Washington".

US envoy for Kosovo-Serbia dialogue Richard Grenell said the claim by Edward P. Joseph, a foreign policy expert, that Grenell is supporting the Mogherini-Vucic-Thaci plan for the partition of Kosovo was fake news.

Joseph, who is a senior fellow at John Hopkins’s School of International Affairs and a former diplomat serving in the Balkans made the statement during an interview for the Serbian edition of the Voice of America.

“Fake News. This has never been discussed in my presence. Edward P. Joseph is reckless here,” Grenell tweeted in reply to an excerpt from the interview.
