Yes lobbying does require a lot of money and knowledge. Millions of Euros has been given to Kosovo to set up its MOFA, which is currently been trained by EU countries and the US. However let us suppose for a minute that Mr Hyseni went to the Pacific and Caribbean Island nations such as Kiribati, Tonga, Palau, Bahamas, Jamaica, Saint Lucia and Trinidad and Tobago ect. Im sure they would be honored to have a official visit from another country. Im also pretty sure it wouldn't be hard to achieve recognition from such countries as it doesn't really affect them weather they recognise Kosovo or not. Lets face facts, Mr Hyseni needs to get away from these places and lobby much much more. This analyst is well written and I approve of it. It points out that Kosovo could have more recognition if it lobbied more. - ijanderson977 Thu, 28 Aug 2008 13:38:58 +0100 http://www.newkosovareport.com/200808281168/Views-and-Analysis/Kosovo-needs-to-engage-in-diplomacy.html#comment-2338 I think it is unfair at this time to be critical of Kosovar's diplomatic credibility, it takes time to produce the knowledge, experience and credibility required for international diplomatic work. This is not only a numbers game, its about creating the infrastructure required to move the nation forward in a constructive and credible way. There must be an enormous amount of work going on to establish the legal, educational and local government structures required. Of course it is good to know that many countried are in support of Kosova, and slowly the number increases and I am sure will continue to do so, as countries come to recognise the responsible way Kosovar is being managed by its government. - Leighton Evans Thu, 28 Aug 2008 13:16:27 +0100 http://www.newkosovareport.com/200808281168/Views-and-Analysis/Kosovo-needs-to-engage-in-diplomacy.html#comment-2336 For lobbying my dear you gotta have money and knowledge. Our brave Mr Jeremic studied at Harvard and has the full support of his gvt. All the contrary of our other brave man Mr Hyseni. - PaRTY Time Thu, 28 Aug 2008 09:24:37 +0100
