Kosovo government spokesperson Memli Krasniqi said that the Kosovo prime minister does not have a scheduled meeting with Marty in the coming two days.

But this ministry stated that its minister does not have a meeting scheduled with Marty either.

Marty was in Belgrade two months ago, where he met with Serbian officials about the suspicions regarding the kidnappings of Serbs and other non-Albanians and human trafficking activity, in a case investigated by the Serbian War Crimes Prosecution, and known informally as the Yellow House.
