The month of Ramadan is a time to reflect on what matters most. Through fasting, many make a personal sacrifice in solidarity with those who face hardship every day. My warmest wishes go to all who are observing the blessed month of Ramadan in Kosovo and around the world. (1/2)

Last night I was delighted to welcome UK nationals – including many proud UK‑Kosovo dual nationals – to a reception in Pristina.
It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the deep and enduring 🇬🇧🇽🇰 ties, and to recognise the citizens whose contributions strengthen both our countries.

I am seriously concerned at the latest attempt by political actors to prevent Srpska Lista from participating in electoral processes. Such actions threaten to erode Kosovo’s hard-earned reputation as a multiethnic democracy and damage relations with its close partners. (1/2)

Today I met Constitutional Court President Nexhmi Rexhepi. We discussed the latest developments affecting 🇽🇰 state institutions. I hoped that after the 28 Dec elections political parties and MPs will act in the spirit of the Constitution in order to swiftly restore stable and empowered governance.

Gjakova has a special place in my heart (I will even forgive it for making its ‘10k run’ 13 long and hot kilometres…). Wonderful to be there again yesterday for the Gjakova Trail, which showed off the city’s beautiful centre & surrounding countryside. Great to bump into some good friends there too!

Piribreg and Guri i Zi became the 5th and 6th of Kosovo’s 20 Peaks of 2500m+ that I have managed. As ever, I loved Kosovo’s stunning nature, and challenging but manageable trails - and above all the wonderful people as company.
