Progress in resolving the case of murder of the Bytyqi brothers, or the lack thereof, should remain a significant factor determining the further development of relations between the United States and the Republic of Serbia, this is one of the points of a resolution proposed for approval in the US Congress on 29 July 2021.

US Congressman from New York, Lee Zeldin, has proposed a resolution to the Congress condemning the the execution-style murders of United States citizens Ylli, Agron, and Mehmet Bytyqi in Serbia in July 1999. The resolution has been proceeded to the Committee on Foreign Affairs for approval and return to the Congress for voting, Gazeta Express reports.

The five-point resolution asks the House of Representatives that those responsible for the murders in July 1999 of United States citizens Ylli, Agron, and Mehmet Bytyqi in Serbia should be brought to justice. Also, in this resolution is stated that it is reprehensible that no individual has ever been found guilty for executing the Bytyqi brothers, or of any other crimes associated with their deaths, and that no individual is even facing charges for these horrible crimes.
