NATO member countries are agreed about respect for the plan of UN chief negotiator for Kosovo Martti Ahtisaari regarding Kosovo, Lamers said after meeting Kosovo President Fatmir Sejdiu, PM Agim Qeku, and Parliament Speaker Kole Berisha.
Lamers said that Ahtisaari, whom the delegation met before their visit to Kosovo, should reach agreement on Kosovo by the end of the year and that there was no need to postpone the final solution.
The status quo in Kosovo can no longer be maintained, the German official said.
During their two-day visit to the UN-administered province the NATO Parliamentary Assembly delegation also met UN Civil Administrator Joachim Ruecker.
