Equatoguinean–Kosovar relations are foreign relations between Equatorial Guinea and Kosovo.[a] There are no formal diplomatic relations between the two states as Equatorial Guinea has not recognized Kosovo as a sovereign state.
History[edit]
On 1 September 2010, Equatorial Guinea's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Anatolio Ndong Mba, said during a press conference that his country's foreign policy favours Kosovo's independence.[1] In September 2011, the President of Equatorial Guinea, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, was reported to have responded positively to a request for recognition by Kosovo.[2]
On 21 November 2011, in a meeting with First Deputy Prime Minister of Kosovo, Behgjet Pacolli, President Obiang reportedly promised to immediately begin formalising the recognition of Kosovo.[3] In January 2012, Pacolli's advisor Jetlir Zyberaj stated that Kosovo had received confirmation of recognition from Equatorial Guinea but was awaiting receipt of the note verbale.[4]
During a visit of Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue to Belgrade on 8 June 2022, it was stated that Equatorial Guinea has not changed its position about not recognizing Kosovo.[5]

Notes[edit]
| a. | ^ Kosovo is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia. The Republic of Kosovo unilaterally declared independence on 17 February 2008, but Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory. The two governments began to normalise relations in 2013, as part of the Brussels Agreement. Kosovo has been recognized as an independent state by 112 out of 193 United Nations member states. 10 states have recognized Kosovo only to later withdraw their recognition. |
