Hoti at KSF: With your dedication the Force is moving safely towards Euro-Atlantic structures

Kosovo's Parliament decision yesterday has been called historic.

There may be a specific distance of time to understand fully how important they are. The decision that Kosovo's Parliament has made yesterday is one of the biggest steps we have historically made as a state and that the KSF towards full integration of KSF into Euro-Atlantic structures is our dream. I believe that only people, citizens, and very visionary leaders have had the opportunity to predict when the army of the Republic of Kosovo, the Kosovo Security Force, was established, under the circumstances of the time when it was designed, the state of Kosovo is designed to be part and to be fully integrated into Euro-Atlantic structures. Only the visionary people [...] even your efforts and commitment, of each officer, of each soldier, some generals, some KSF leaders, some ministers up to where we are, step by step”, said Hoti.

And Defence Minister Anton Kuni said the performance of KSF soldiers in and outside the country has won partner confidence that Kosovo soldiers can carry out their duties in honour.

The belief of the United States of America, our natural ally, adds even more to the honor of this historic achievement. We with American forces have always felt one, now with American forces besides hearts and minds we will have one and our troops and weapons on sacred missions in the service of peace, security and stability for all humanity, this is our mission towards our vision of NATO integration”, said Quinn.

Members of the Kosovo Security Force in March this year will launch the first peacekeeping masonry in the world. They will be beside the National Guard of Iowa.
