BACKING the 2013 Brussels Agreement Act

HR 6910, the "BACKING the 2013 Brussels Agreement Act," would require the U.S. to withhold all foreign aid to Kosovo until Kosovo meets five specific conditions tied to the 2013 Brussels Agreement. These conditions include creating an Association/Community of Serb-majority Municipalities, removing special police from northern Kosovo, holding new mayoral elections in northern Kosovo, halting the seizure of Kosovo Serbs' property (like cars with Serbian plates), and respecting freedom of political expression for all ethnic groups. The bill states Kosovo has failed to implement the agreement and discriminated against Kosovo Serbs in areas including justice, property rights, and labor markets. U.S. aid to Kosovo, totaling over $2 billion since 1999, would remain suspended until these conditions are fulfilled.
