Writing in Albanian, Osmani said: “Today, I gave the title of Honorary Ambassador of the Republic of Kosovo to Dua Lipa, because she continues to honour our country in every step and every appearance.
“[She] has become an inspiration and model for girls all over the world. She is using her incredible voice and talent, not only to offer the world songs that leave a mark, but also to present the best image of Kosovo everywhere in the world.”
Osmani also recognised Lipa’s father, Dukagjin, who along with the pop star, founded the four-day Sunny Hill Festival, which held its third edition in Kosovo’s capital, Prisitina, on Thursday (August 4).
Lipa reaffirmed her gratitude to the President once again, commenting on her post: “It’s an honour, thank you.”
Ahead of the inaugural Sunny Hill Festival in 2018, Lipa was given the first ever key to the city of Pristina. In a tweet that showed Lipa alongside then-Mayor Shpend Ahmeti, she wrote: “Such an honour to be given the first key to the city of Prishtina, Kosovo… Thank you for your endless support.”
