He added the agreement adds to existing concerns across the region about the assertion of Albanian ethno-national identity. "[It] has motivated, in part, the boycott of the census in south Serbia, the abandonment of Macedonia's census and tensions within Albania over the number of ethnic minorities, likely to provoke further mistrust in neighbouring countries such as Montenegro and Greece."
On je dodao da sporazum doprinosi postojećim zabrinutostima širom regiona o nametanju albanskog etničko-nacionalnog identiteta. „[To] je, delimično, motivisalo bojkot popisa na jugu Srbije, prekid makedonskog popisa i tenzije sa Albanijom oko broja etničkih manjina, koje bi mogle da izazovu dodatno nepoverenje u susednim zemljama, kao što su Crna Gora i Grčka“.
