Rama seeks additional KFOR troops: Kosovo-Serbia border is out of control

Albania's Prime Minister, Edi Rama, has called for additional NATO troops in Kosovo in a way that “to ensure security and absolute invisibility” of Kosovo.

Rama requested this from Skopje, following the meeting of leaders of five NATO member states from Southeast Europe together with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

He has made it known that the addition of NATO troops is who will not repeat a case like Banjska's.

“On the other hand, I would like to point out that I am sorry for the fact that despite repeated calls to significantly increase, not attention, but also troops which should ensure the stability and absolute invulnerability of Kosovo, there has been a tragic event that should be considered a warning and not a sporadical event, and which should not be repeated at any cost, and for that reason I stressed today the need to increase the number of NATO forces in Kosovo<1>, Rama said.

Also, Rama has stressed that these troops are to secure the Kosovo-Serbia border, which, according to him, is out of control and is serving illegal activities.

“And the necessity to secure the border between Kosovo and Serbia, which is actually out of control and which is in the service of illegal activities of arms, drugs, activities which are then confused as we all know the political activity, with the ultranationalist background, which causes serious deviations such as the deviations in Bansjca, where one RKS police employee lost his life, and where it clearly emerged in the high risk of destabilisation and escalation of the 911 situation, Rama added.
