On the front page the paper cites a report from KTV that U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary Rosemary DiCarlo, during her recent visit to Kosovo, not only praised the progress of the Kosovo Government but also expressed the view of the U.S. administration that it is not pleased with the work of Kosovo institutions in lobbying for
recognition of independence.

“Part of the joint American-Kosovo plan was to have 97 recognitions by September. Afterwards, Kosovo would apply for membership in the UN, when the General Assembly convenes,” an unnamed international official told KTV.

The source added that this plan could very well fail because of the small number of recognitions and the inefficiency of the Kosovo Government to lobby.
