Rupel's visit comes at a time of preparations for a review of Kosovo's progress in meeting a set of internationally endorsed standards, especially in the areas of security, rule of law, protection of minorities, freedom of movement, return of displaced persons and decentralisation.
Rupelova poseta dolazi u trenutku priprema za procenu napretka Kosova u ispunjavanju niza standarda koje je odredila međunarodna zajednica, posebno u oblasti bezbednosti, vladavine zakona, zaštite manjina, slobode kretanja, povratka raseljenih lica i decentralizacije.
