Eritrean–Kosovar relations are foreign relations between Eritrea and Kosovo.[a] There are no formal diplomatic relations between the two states as Eritrea has not recognized Kosovo as a sovereign state.
History[edit]
On 4 September 2008, the Director of the Euro-Americas Division at the Eritrean Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Tsehaye Fassil, said that his government had not decided whether it would recognise Kosovo's independence.[1]
In September 2011, the President of Eritrea, Isaias Afewerki, was reported to have responded positively to a request for recognition of Kosovo.[2]
In April 2014, the Eritrean Foreign Minister, Osman Saleh Mohammed, said Eritrea supported the right to self-determination and that his country would work to improve its relations with Kosovo.[3]

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. |
