The speeches focused on the necessity of defending European values. For Kosovo, according to the prize winner, it is clear that there is one goal, and that is membership of the European Union.  <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As this year&#8217;s Coudenhove Prize winner, the President of the Republic of Kosovo Vjosa Osmani-Sadriu, pointed out at the very beginning of her acceptance speech, the later founding president of the independent state of Kosovo, Ibrahim Rugova, had already noted in 1992 in Vienna\u2014in the same hall where the Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Prize ceremony was now taking place\u2014that appeasement towards dictators would never lead to a lasting peace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">By 1992, the Serbian war criminal Slobodan Milo\u0161evi\u0107 had already launched his series of wars against almost all parts of Yugoslavia that had become independent by then. The dream of a Greater Serbia reached its peak towards the end of the 1990s with the start of an attempted genocide against the Kosovars. Then the Western world had had enough, and NATO ended the war in the Balkans, which had lasted almost a decade, with a targeted and precise intervention.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A return of the formerly autonomous region of Kosovo to the rule of Belgrade was no longer conceivable; the path to independence was practically preordained. However, the current destructive policy of Serbian President Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107 towards the Republic of Kosovo shows how long the seeds of evil persist. Vu\u010di\u0107 was Minister of Information in the Milo\u0161evi\u0107 regime.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Almost 300 guests \u2013 Paneuropeans, members of the Europe Society, diplomats, members of the Kosovo diaspora in Vienna and Austria, etc. \u2013 had come to the large ballroom in the Haus der Industrie for the award ceremony of the Europe Prize. To the sounds of the European Anthem and the Kosovo Anthem, the prize winner and the Chairman of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Society, Nikolaus von Liechtenstein, entered the hall. <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Challenges for the Western Balkans<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The subsequent speeches \u2013 from the welcome address by the Secretary General of the Federation of Austrian Industries Christoph Neumayer, the introductory speech by the President of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Society Nikolaus von Liechtenstein, the keynote speech by the Honorary President of the Paneuropean Movement Austria Karl von Habsburg, and the laudatory speech by MEP Lukas Mandl, through to the speech by President Vjosa Osmani-Sadriu \u2013 then dealt with European integration in general, the specific challenges for the countries of South-Eastern Europe (today called the Western Balkans), and questions ranging from democracy, the market economy, and the rule of law to the defence of European or Western values against attacks from Russia and China. The event was moderated by Severin Meister, who was designated by the board of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Society as the society&#8217;s new Secretary General. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3537\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3537\" class=\"wp-image-3537 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/pan.thatscommunication.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Europapreis-Einzug-Saal-k-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"414\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-3537\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Entrance of the State President and Europe Prize winner with the President of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Society into the large ballroom at the Haus der Industrie in Vienna, where the award ceremony took place.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jrGmyyh3e9A&#038;t=8s\">Nikolaus von Liechtenstein (click here for his speech)<\/a> underlined in his introductory speech the importance of the work and ideas of Paneuropean founder Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi for European integration, but specifically for today&#8217;s challenges. As an example of what the President of the Republic of Kosovo stands for, he cited the commitment to the rule of law, which is so important for the preservation of human dignity. <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Rule of law and commitment to values<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cIt is about values,\u201d emphasised the Honorary President of the Paneuropean Movement Austria <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8IXfaLibGFw\">Karl von Habsburg (click here for his speech)<\/a> in his keynote address. In doing so, he spanned the arc from the awarding of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Prize to Kosovo&#8217;s founding president Ibrahim Rugova to the Republic of Kosovo&#8217;s application for accession to the European Union. Rugova, in turn, enjoyed a close personal and political friendship with Otto von Habsburg. Even before the Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Prize, Ibrahim Rugova was awarded the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought. He received the Europe Prize in 2004.    <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A year earlier, an EU summit took place in Thessaloniki, at which the countries of the Western Balkans were offered the prospect of joining the European Union. The approach at the time of bringing stability to the region through the prospect of accession still applies today, even if progress in enlargement policy for the region remains modest. In this context, Habsburg criticised the currently prevailing policy of stabilocracy.  <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Stabilocracy brings no stability<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This refers to a policy that aims for the stability of regimes but allows democracy and the rule of law to take a back seat. \u201cThat is not stability,\u201d Habsburg criticised, referring primarily to the situation in Serbia. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Europe has experienced several restructurings over the past 100 years. In 1918 with the end of the First World War, in 1945 after the end of the Second World War with the division of Europe, and finally in 1989 the end of the Iron Curtain and subsequently the end of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact. Europe then began to collect the peace dividend and neglected investments in its own security. In terms of security policy, it remained dependent on the USA; the Balkan wars could only be ended through US intervention.   <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3538 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/pan.thatscommunication.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Europapreis-Saal-k-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"414\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Geopolitically, Europe had signed off. However, according to Karl von Habsburg, in Europe one must ask the question whether \u201cwe want to shape our own future or just be passengers on the train of history\u201d. For a long time, no one wanted to acknowledge that Vladimir Putin uses energy as a weapon. He wants to make Moscow a world power again, which is why he intervened so massively in Syria.   <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">China claims the right to become the number 1 world power, although China is confronted with a rapidly ageing society. China could therefore grow old before it is rich. Moscow and Beijing have completely different ideas of the world than those we know in the Western world. For Karl von Habsburg, Russia&#8217;s war against Ukraine is not just a war between two countries, but a war between different ideologies. Moscow is waging a war on Ukrainian soil against Western values, against freedom, democracy, human rights, the market economy, and the rule of law.     <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Ukraine&#8217;s successes \u2013 although Habsburg pointed out that there are not only successes in Ukraine and that some problem areas still need to be cleared up \u2013 became a threat to Moscow. Ukraine&#8217;s development as a post-Soviet state compared to the post-Soviet state of Russia was a threat to the Putin system of rule. <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If Europe wants freedom, it must defend it<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If Europe wants to continue living in freedom, then Europe must also fight for its values, Karl von Habsburg stated. This also includes a clear definition of what is to be achieved with the support for Ukraine. Talk of supporting Ukraine for as long as necessary prevents a clear definition of goals. This must be: the restoration of Ukraine within its internationally recognised borders, reparations payments by Russia, and a change of government in Moscow. For Europe has an interest in a peaceful neighbour to the east.    <\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">But it is not only Russia that poses a threat to Europe and the Western world, but also China. Beijing says very clearly that it has different ideas of human rights or property rights than those that are currently standard. Democracy and the rule of law do not exist in the Chinese system.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The Republic of Kosovo clearly stands for European values, the Honorary President of the Paneuropean Movement Austria emphasised. This is also shown by the policy of sanctions against Russia, which are supported by Pristina. For him, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Prize is a recognition not only of this policy of the Kosovan President, but also of the people of the country.  <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Prize should be motivation for candidate status<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Two and a half years ago, Habsburg concluded his speech, the President had announced in the same hall, as part of the 100th anniversary event of Paneurope, that she would submit the application for accession to the European Union. This then took place on 15 December 2022. \u201cWe all hope that this Europe Prize is not only a recognition of the policy of the Republic of Kosovo under President Osmani-Sadriu, but also a motivation for the European Union to grant candidate status so that accession negotiations can begin!\u201d  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In 2018, in the European Parliament, he, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wJIkaKZHexQ\">Lukas Mandl (click here for his laudatory speech)<\/a>, had first become aware of President Osmani. It was a meeting of the joint committee of the European Parliament and the Kosovo Parliament, attended by MEP Lukas Mandl and the then member of the Kosovo Parliament Vjosa Osmani-Sadriu. The now State President had caught his attention because of her visionary, future-oriented speech about her homeland, Lukas Mandl said in his laudatory speech.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The trained lawyer, who is now the sixth President of the Republic of Kosovo, was previously the first female Speaker of the Kosovo Parliament and had to experience Serbia&#8217;s war against Kosovo as a child. She is thus a head of state who also knows what is at stake when war is discussed. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3539\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3539\" class=\"wp-image-3539 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/pan.thatscommunication.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Europapreis-Gruppenbild-k-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"414\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-3539\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The prize winner and State President Vjosa Osmani-Sadriu with her husband (to her left) and Paneuropean well-wishers.

Not in the picture is the President of the Paneuropean Union Ukraine Ihor Zhaloba, who also attended the festive event.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The Republic of Kosovo, like the Republic of Austria, is a small country. Small countries need good international relations, according to the speaker. This work is one of the strengths of the Coudenhove Prize winner. Kosovo is not only a small country but also the youngest country in Europe. For Lukas Mandl, it is a shame, both for these countries and the EU, that five member states of the European Union still have not recognised the Republic of Kosovo. The Europe Prize is a reminder to change this state of affairs.     <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/watch\/?mibextid=wwXIfr&#038;v=1447682253067973&#038;rdid=MFmILddCLAfWo1j6\">Vjosa Osmani-Sadriu (click here for the President&#8217;s speech)<\/a> began her speech with thanks to the many supporters who made Kosovo&#8217;s path to independence possible. She explicitly mentioned the Paneuropean Union and its long-standing president Otto von Habsburg, human rights activists and journalists, but also politicians such as the former Austrian Foreign Minister Alois Mock or the former Secretary General in the Austrian Foreign Ministry Albert Rohan. \u201cVienna,\u201d she formulated, \u201cwas then and still is known not only as the capital of Austria but also as the capital of South-Eastern Europe.\u201d  <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kosovo emerged from the will of its citizens<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kosovo, the Europe Prize winner emphasised, is a state that emerged from the will of its own population. It was a hard road for the people in Kosovo, but despite all the challenges, the goal was clear. \u201cBecause we know where we come from, because we know what we stand for, and because we know exactly where we are going. In Kosovo, there was never any doubt about that. Kosovo has never flirted with other powers. Kosovo knows that there is only one goal, and that is the European Union.\u201d  <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Without Kosovo, Europe is not complete<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">These were clear words with which the President described the political goals not only of herself but also of the citizens of Kosovo. They believe in a united Europe that includes all countries, in a Europe of freedom and peace. At the same time, President Osmani-Sadriu called for clarity in this objective. For without Kosovo, without the youngest state in Europe, Europe is not complete. The European Union is not only a goal for the Kosovars, it is also the chance for the European Union to complete with Kosovo what was begun, according to the clear words of the Coudenhove Prize winner.    <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Europe must also fight for its values and goals, according to the President. Europe is the continent where democracy has its birthplace. But Europe faces great challenges. With this, she addressed Russia&#8217;s war against Ukraine and thus against Europe, from the perspective of a country that itself had to fight for its independence and freedom.   <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Autocratic tendencies must be countered<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">She also addressed autocratic tendencies that are spreading in Europe. Democracy must not be taken for granted; democracy must be revitalised again and again. \u201cEurope,\u201d she formulated, \u201cis a living responsibility.\u201d The current generation must restore Europe&#8217;s moral compass. \u201cFor Europe is not a distant dream, it is what we are.\u201d    <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photo copyright: Valerie Maltseva<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a festive ceremony in Vienna, this year&#8217;s Coudenhove-Kalergi Europe Prize was awarded to the President of the Republic of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani-Sadriu.
