Kosovo Davutoğlu’s first stop on Balkans tour

During his first official visit to Kosovo as foreign minister, Davutoğlu will hold talks with Prime Minister Hashim Thaci, Deputy Prime Minister Edita Tahiri and Foreign Minister Enver Hoxhaj.

Davutoğlu, whose wife, Sare Davutoğlu, is accompanying him during the visit, will proceed to Bosnia and Herzegovina on Sunday when he will have talks with members of the trilateral presidency, the high representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina and the leaders of the main Bosnian political parties.

During his visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Davutoğlu will also attend a ceremony at the University of Tuzla where he will be awarded an honorary Doctorate title and deliver a speech. He will meet with officers from a Turkish military unit camp in Butmir and will get together with academics and nongovernmental organizations as well as pay a visit to the historic city of Mostar.
