Behgjet Pacolli, Kosovo's Deputy Prime Minister and a rich businessman, has declared that best solution for the Serb-run northern part of Kosovo is to become a free economic zone, like Jebel Ali, the world's largest and fastest-growing free zone in Dubai.

"I would give my best for the free economic zone to function and the international community would benefit, as the money it spends on police could instead be invested in production," Pacolli told the German media on Thursday.

According to Pacolli, the free economic zone would include the northern part of Kosovo, down to and including the southern, Albanian, part of the town of Mitrovica.

"Over the next 20 or 30 years it would create thousands of new jobs annually," he said explaining that while producers in Germany currently pay up to 50 per cent tax, tax in the free zone would be only 5 per cent.
