Speaking at the joint conference with his Slovenian counterpart, Nataša Pirc-Musar, during his visit to Ljubljana, Begaj emphasized that Kosovo and Serbia must find a common language for dialogue based on the agreements reached in Brussels and the annexes approved in Ohrid. 

Begaj pointed out that Albania is a promoter of peace, security, stability and long-term cooperation in the region. While he emphasized that stability is not given for free. For this reason, he referred to the situation in the north of Kosovo, where according to him, “the situation in the north of Kosovo, the situation of recent times showed us that stability is very important”.

“The politics of escalation to de-escalate is a politics of the day, which serves the politicians to win the next election, but never serves the prosperity of the countries involved.
As neighboring countries, it is up to us to build good neighborly relations, to cooperate with each other and instead of walls to build bridges of cooperation. It is up to us that every issue, old or new, issues that are connected by old or new differences must be discussed, must be dialogued and the only solution is dialogue and finding a compromise, since any deterioration of the situation of stability in the northern region of Kosovo will bring a destabilization of the entire region and beyond. Instead of spending our energies to de-escalate the escalated situation, we should spend our energies working to implement the public agreement that the leaders of Kosovo and Serbia have accepted in Brussels and the annexes approved in Ohrid,” Begaj said, responding to the interest of journalists.
