One of Kurt's questions was this: Don't you feel protected by KFOR, NATO troops present in Kosovo?

Here's his answer:

“are 48 operational bases ahead of Serbia in the so-called land security zone around the Kosovo border, 28 are military and 20 are generals, where they have increased their units' combat readiness. And they also invited the Russian ambassador to Belgrade to inspect the regrouping of MiG 29 into the air when we had problems north of”.

“Imagine if your biggest neighbour (Serbia) does not recognise your country? Your neighbour then does not distance himself from either Milosevic or Putin. They share 3% of their GDP for military equipment and make sure their troops around the border are ready for combat. This cannot be overlooked”.

“Of course Kosovo is not in NATO. NATO is in Kosovo. We feel safe. We're not afraid, but we're very vigilant”
