The lobbyist in question is the creator of lies about the alleged rape of 20,000 Albanian women during the war in Kosovo - US Congressman Eliot Engel.
Although the conflict initially stemmed from a request for impeachment of US President Trump over the scandal involving Ukraine, the conflict between Pompeo and Democrat Engel practically reveals "dirty methods" used by Albanian lobbyists for years, assigned to some key positions in the US administration, according to "Novosti".
The war over foreign policymaking on various fronts, including resolving the Kosovo issue, which has long been smoldering between the State Department and parts of Congress, escalated on Tuesday, in an open letter sent by Pompeo to Engel, and posted on his Twitter account.
Pompeo warned Engel, who is Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, to stop "intimidating and and summoning State Department professionals to give depositions."
Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic points out that Pompeo has made it clear that he will not allow bullying of State Department diplomats conducted by Engel.
"When Engel puts such pressure on the State Department, you can only imagine what he is doing to other countries regarding Kosovo. He has received millions of dollars from Pristina and openly lobbies for an independent Kosovo because Albanians in the United States support him and vote for him. On the other hand, a US Congressman said that the Serbian diaspora is the best because it does not ask for anything in return for its votes. We are fools, voting for someone without expecting anything in return, nobody in the world does that", Dacic said, "Vecernje novosti" reports.
It's great Mr Pompeo.

That "Mr." Pompeo is a pompous rat, a scourge of Americans living abroad.
Just try to get any "service" from a U.S. embassy as a citizen - you will get some nice feelings.
Would love to see him joining his other rodent comrades in a place where they need a fire-proof suite until the end of the Universe.

Wrongly.......just because your paid man holds a position it should not allow him to take bribes to lie and promote injustice.
What would you say if Serbia was to pay dozens of high ranking and influential US politicians millions of dollars to "lobby" for Serbia?? And then you read absolute lies, twisting of the truth, ignoring international law, etc....?????

Serbia is an absolute joke. Eliot Engel is a Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs that is doing his job in regards to Pompeo and Ukraine. Hearing Serbia talk about the politics of USA like they know or understand anything is quite hilarious.

I find it very interesting that the many Albanians, who for some unknown reason find it necessary to read and comment on Serbian news sites such as this one, fail to comment on these truthful pro Serb stories. Your time is up! The disguises of your paid politicians such as the greedy and crooked Clintons, Madeleine Albright, Wesley Clarke, and even Eliot Engel have been unveiled for the entire world to see them for the crooks that they were and are. The breathtakingly fresh government of Donald Trump has zero tolerance for crooked and "paid for" politics. Now, the entire world knows and sees the truth and all of the disgusting war crimes Albanians have committed. Kosovo was, is, and always will be SERBIA!!!! If you want your rights and your own country, go back to Albania!

Indeed, the Serbian diaspora does not make any effort to lobby for Serbia. Albanians are, on the contrary very active.A couple of days ago when I visited Strasbourg, there were a couple of Albanians in front of the ECHR, and the Council of Europe. In the nearby park two boys dressed in red having the black eagle on their pullovers and on the back written "Albanians".
