However, KFOR says the operation in question carried out the entire Kosovo police and that KFOR was not involved in their arrest.
We want to inform you that despite the fact mentioned in some media reports, KFOR was not involved in this arrest. This was an internal issue of Kosovo and the Kosovo Police”, KFOR's response, granted to Indexline, says.
In the question of increased citizens' activities from Russia suspected as a secret agent on Kosovo territory, KFOR has said that Kosovo is an open country and that this force is working closely with all countries in the region to increase stability and prosperity in the Western Balkans and that such reflections are expected by Russia as well, rather than a possible destabilisation of it.
“We do not comment on intelligence issues, however, regarding the influence of other countries in the Balkans. We fully respect the rights of nations to choose their political and security arrangements. We work closely with all countries in the region to increase stability and prosperity in the Western Balkans. We expect other countries to do the same”, KFOR's response said.
