A Facebook page shared today (November 9) an article titled “The strong one sends “greetings” to the EU for Kosovo” (here) taken from the dubious portal "gazetafikse.info", published on November 8.
A photo of US President Joe Biden is also attached to this article.
After verifying the facts, hibrid.info has confirmed that the article is old and the title is fabricated, which does not correspond to the content.
The content talks about the policies of the United States of America (US) and the European Union (EU), but there is no part that clarifies the title that US President Joe Biden has declared something like this to the EU regarding Kosovo.

After research conducted through online search engines, hibrid.info managed to find the article published on March 6, 2021 on the Albanian-language information portal "indeksonline.net" (see here)
The article is published in the "opinion" section of the portal, with the title "Biden should help Kosovo like before, the EU is working against them", indicating the author of the text below the title.
When an article is published in the "opinion" section, this means that they are the thoughts and opinions of the author of the text and not necessarily established facts.
During the search, the original article published in English on the medium "newsweek.com" on March 4, 2021 by the author Ivan Sascha Sheehan was also found. (see here)
