Speaking about the situation in Kosovo and Metohija, Minister Vulin stressed that the announced transformation of “Kosovo Security Forces” to the so called “Armed Forces of Kosovo” was utterly unacceptable deeming it a flagrant violation of the UN SC Resolution 1244 and the Military Technical Agreement from Kumanovo.Also, Minister Vulin pointed out that the Republic of Serbia appreciated the professional engagement of the members of the Italian Armed Forces in the KFOR mission in Kosovo and Metohija, expressing his expectations that the Italian soldiers would remain in our southern province as long as the security situation required it.
