All of these high ranking Officials expressed their appreciation for the fruitful and very close cooperation with KFOR in meeting the mutual challenges, in the past thirteen months. They agreed that ongoing mutual assistance and cooperation continue on an ongoing basis in maintaining a peaceful and positive atmosphere.

 

It was noted in particular that KFOR always acted impartially within Kosovo in maintaining a safe and secure environment and freedom of movement, for all the people of Kosovo.

 

Key Stakeholders representing the International Community, in Kosovo, are regular visitors to KFOR whereby they are afforded detailed briefs of the current geopolitical and security situation in the region. These meetings were highly beneficial in forging relationships with the International representatives playing a vital and ongoing role in helping sustain and maintain peace and stability.
