Statement by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg on direct flights between Belgrade and Pristina

NATO - North Atlantic Treaty Organisation

20 Jan. 2020
Press Release (2020) 011

I welcome the intention by Eurowings and the Lufthansa Group to establish direct flights between Belgrade and Pristina, based on the letters of intent signed today in Berlin.

This is an important step, which will make the circulation of people and goods easier and faster within the Western Balkans region.

The Commander of our KFOR mission retains the authority in the airspace over Kosovo, according to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244. And NATO will remain involved through the long-standing Balkans Aviation Normalisation Meeting process, which we lead.
