How probable do you think it is that it will be possible to meet in
person at all, i.e. how probably it is that

a) vaccination in Kosovo will be advanced enough by this time;
b) in person meetings will be allowed;
c) foreign nationals will be allowed in the country, and under which
   conditions?

I understand that it might be too soon to answer those questions, or
that maybe we can be optimistic and assume the best case scenario by
default. But still we must be prepared for it to go wrong, so we should
probably define a deadline for a go/no-go decision so people can make
plans.  If the worse happens and it can't happen again, we need to know
that well in advance.
