The American Chamber of Commerce in Kosovo has welcomed the agreement on the normalisation of relations between Kosovo and Serbia, saying that it will pave the way to economic development for both countries and improve the exchange of goods and services.

AmCham called on the Kosovo government to join the initiative of Albania, North Macedonia, and Serbia, for a common regional market, based on the agreement reached in Washington in September 2020.

“The American Chamber also calls on both countries to respect pledges made earlier for investments in the road and railway infrastructure. Developing the transport infrastructure, along with the mutual recognition of university diplomas and professional certifications, will enable the free movement of people and gods, and the free provision of services while improving the mobility of businesses and professionals in the Open Balkan area,” the statement notes.
