"While the US Office in Pristina has operated for many years with all the responsibilities and tasks of a busy diplomatic mission, the designation as an embassy reflects a new phase in our development and underscores our deep and lasting commitment to work on the progress of Kosovo and all its people," Kaidanow said.
"Dok je Američki ured u Prištini radio puno godina sa svim odgovornostima i zadaćama uposlene diplomatske misije, prerastanje u veleposlanstvo odražava novu fazu u našem razvitku i naglašava našu duboku i dugotrajnu predanost radu na napretku Kosova i svih njegovih građana", kazala je Kaidanow.
