NATO-led peacekeeping mission stands ready to intervene in Kosovo: Stoltenberg
BRUSSELS (AA) – The NATO-led peacekeeping mission in Kosovo (KFOR) stands ready to intervene if needed, Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg told Serbian President Alexandar Vucic on Wednesday.
The two had a phone call in which they discussed “tensions in northern Kosovo,” Stoltenberg said on Twitter.
He called on all sides to “engage constructively in the EU-mediated dialogue, and solve the differences through diplomacy.”
On Tuesday, Stoltenberg had a call with Albania’s Prime Minister Albin Kurti, and conveyed a similar message.
Tensions rose on Sunday ahead of a new Kosovar law supposed to take effect on Aug. 1, making it mandatory for everyone, including Serbs living in Kosovo, to have a Kosovo ID card and license plate.
Kosovo has now postponed for a month the implementation of the new border rules.
Kosovo declared its independence from Serbia in 2008, with most UN member-states, including the US, UK, France, Germany, and Türkiye, recognizing it as an autonomous country.
