<x0 response to the illegal activities of Serbian clubs in Kosovo and interventions in the independence of the NFF by the authorities of the Republic of Kosovo. The Kosovo Football Federation strongly condemns the development of illegal football races on the part of Serbia's structures within our country's territory. NFFK is a full-fledged member of the U EFA since May 2016 and as such is the only institution in the UEFA and FFK statute to organise football races in the Republic of Kosovo. Recent media reports on the development of contestary matches by Serbia's illegal structure within Kosovo's territory, though at amateur levels, are disturbing and unacceptable. The NFF has already discussed these phenomena within the Council for Sports and has called for the immediate action company. Such activities violate FFK's authority and Kosovo's sovereignty in general. The NFFK seeks from all relevant state factors, the Council for Sports and Orders to undertake urgent investigations and toė prevent such illegal activities and is willing to help with expertise and support through U.S. mechanisms EFA and FIFA. We are open to co-operation and support for all communities living in Kosovo, including the Serb community, but we cannot allow the development of illegal structures' activities, which contrary to U's rules. EFA organises football matches within Kosovo territory. So we will do everything in our power to stop these activities. We once express our concern about the obstacles he has created M The CRS, in terms of non-licensing the NFF, despite the completion of documentation as well as continued recent interventions of investigative bodies in FFK independence. The very actions of the Kosovo authorities towards the independence of the FFK seem to have thrilled Serbia's illegal structures to organise football activities in Kosovo. Regarding these illegal activities and direct interventions of Serbia, as well as the licensing process and recent developments by investigative organs against the NFF, we will react and seek the intervention of UEFA, during meetings that the Kosovo delegation will have at the next Congress of the U.S. The EFA to be held tomorrow in Lisbon, Portugal. ”

Some Serbian clubs have consistently held activities in Kosovo, but have participated in the competitions Serbia organises, ignoring Kosovo ones.
