Kosovan Prime Minister sends Easter greetings to Vatican

The Prime Minister of Kosovo, Hashim Thaci has congratulated the Vatican and all Catholics on the occasion of Easter instead of Christmas.

According to the Prime Minister’s statement distributed on Sunday by the press service of Thaci, "Easter is one of the most important holidays of the Catholic world. Congratulations to all believers on the Resurrection of Christ, especially those members of the international community in Kosovo."



The Prime Minister hoped that Easter would bring the Kosovar Catholics more warmth, hope and success, and progress in society, as well as harmony and peace. Later a revised version of the greeting appeared on the site of the Prime Minister.

The Republic of Kosovo is a partially recognized state, located in the former Yugoslavia. Currently, the vast majority of its population consists of Albanians who profess Islamic faith.
