The Minister of Industry, Entrepreneurship, Trade and Innovation, Mimoza Kusari-Lila, attended a reception organized by the Embassy of Ireland in Kosovo and the European Union Office in Kosovo on the occasion of Ireland taking over the Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
On this occasion, Minister Kusari-Lila praised the good relations between Kosovo and Ireland, built on shared values of democracy, peace, and cooperation. She emphasized that Ireland has been an important supporter of Kosovo since the beginning of its independence, as well as of the country’s European perspective.
