I’m not buying into any conspiracies, and I will point out further that Serbia doesn’t even recognize Kosovo as a legitimate nation. So by continuing to push their currency in a sovereign country that uses the Euro, Serbia is continuing to attempt to delegitimize them as a nation.

I don’t know if this is the right move or not by Kosovo, that’s above my pay grade. But there are certainly worse ways for them to assert their independence than insisting on using the nationally adopted currency.
