Not long ago, the transformation of 2000 ends KLA in KPC. It had all started after Kumanovo's agreement and in line with the Rambouillet Agreement. Kosovo Protection Corps (TMK) was an integral part of the Kosovo Interim Government under the UN protectorate, namely the UN Mission in Kosovo, UNMIK.
The first KPC leader was appointed Lieutenant General Agim Ceku. Under the deal, KPC duties and rights at the time were action to prevent and reduce damage from natural disasters and accidents, offering aid to endangered areas, helping clean up mined areas, aid for reconstruction and communities, the KP reports.
The KPC was established at the beginning of the institutional body of the country that was occurring not only in Kosovo, but also in the region, which grew and strengthened, but in poor conditions and low wages.
On February 2nd 2007, the special envoy for Kosovo's status, Martti Ahtisaari, submitted his proposal to Pristina and Belgrade, “Standards for Kosovo”, in which the dissolution of KPC was envisioned, and the creation of a new force.
“will create a new, professional and multiethnic security force for Kosovo, which will be easily armed and will be able to cover certain security needs according to State Let this deal come together. Kosovo Protection Corps, after achieving their goal, including facilitating the post-war reconstruction of Kosovo. They will be distributed one year after the adoption of this” agreement, written in the Ahtisaari Plan.
But in 2009 this force was again dissolved to become another force, now the Kosovo Security Force.
On January 20th 2009, the KPC officially broke up in KSF. The Kosovo Security Force originally had the responsibility to face serious disasters, such as earthquakes, floods or fires that could threaten Kosovo.
On March 4th 2014, the Government of Kosovo made the decision to form the Kosovo Armed Forces, such as the Kosovo Army, which is expected to achieve capacities that can ensure Kosovo's integrity, a decision that failed to be finalised by now and by years.
