During his meeting with Prime Minister Albin Kurti and Foreign Minister Donika Gervalla-Schwarz, discussions covered key aspects such as Kosovo's security, economy, and the ongoing fight against corruption.

Cameron, who arrived in Pristina for a two-day visit, emphasized the UK's commitment to supporting Kosovo's sovereignty and its right to be recognized as a fully sovereign nation. In a joint press conference with Gervalla-Schwarz, the British Foreign Secretary highlighted areas where the UK is actively contributing, including security cooperation, economic development, and anti-corruption efforts.

"We are here to support you, to promote you, and to help you in all the ways we can. We talked this morning about your security and the important contributions that we can make to that," Cameron stated.

The UK has been actively involved in the Kosovo Force (KFOR), with over 600 British troops deployed in the region this year. The Foreign Secretary also underscored the pride Britain takes in providing training and support to Kosovo's armed forces, emphasizing their successful training programs in the UK.

During the discussions, Cameron and the Kosovo leadership explored ways to enhance support in terms of security cooperation and garnering recognition from additional countries. Kosovo, a partially recognized state in Southeastern Europe, declared independence from Serbia in 2008. However, Serbia, along with several other nations, disputes its statehood.

The UK is among the 102 United Nations member states that have recognized Kosovo's independence. Despite international efforts to find a long-term solution to the Kosovo dispute, tensions persist in the region, with occasional outbreaks of violence between Serbs and Albanians. Cameron's visit underscores the ongoing commitment to fostering diplomatic ties and contributing to Kosovo's development across various sectors. (ILKHA)
