With Grexit now slowly receding in the rear view mirror, Greece’s radical leftist government is returning to more normal international contacts, as Greek FM Nikos Kotzias begins a tour of Kosovo, Albania and Bosnia-Herzegovina this week.
On Tuesday, Kotzias will head to Pristina, where he will be received by Kosovo PM Isa Mustafa and his counterpart Hashim Thaci.
The next day he will arrive in Tirana, Albania, for talks with Albanian FM Ditmir Bushati. Kotzias will also be received by PM Edi Rama and Albanian President Bujar Nishani. Other contacts are scheduled with Albanian Parliament President Ilir Meta and opposition leader Lulzim Basha.
The Greek FM will also meet with members of that country’s ethnic Greek minority.
On Thursday, Kotzias heads for Sarajevo for successive meetings with the members of the three-person presidum: Bakir Izetbegovic, Mladen Ivanic and Dragan Covic, as well as withPM Denis Zvidvic and FM Igor Crnadak.
