KFOR is made up of 27 member nations, of various religions, creeds and none. This multicultural and multi-ethnic community brings great colour and pageantry to this time of year. We all celebrate this season in different ways and one of the benefits of such a diverse community is sampling the traditions of our friends and colleagues. This year has been a particularly challenging period for all of us. We have endured lockdowns and restrictions on freedoms that would have seemed impossible to imagine just one year ago. However, we are KFOR. We can and we will endure and persevere in order to remain mission focussed. We are a self-selecting group that have stepped forward and made personal sacrifices for the achievement of a safe and secure environment with freedom of movement for all communities in Kosovo. We are in this together and as one we will progress. Throughout its 21 year history, KFOR has overcome a multitude of challenges, coming out stronger every time. We are battling an invisible enemy; unconventional threats require us to adopt unconventional measures. You have displayed a strong sense of resilience, commitment, dedication and loyalty. We can and we will come out stronger for this experience. 2020 has been challenging, we hope that 2021 will bring new opportunities and the resumption of normality to Kosovo, to our own lives and to our families back home. The recent developments with regards to vaccines mean that there is light at the end of the tunnel, but we must not lose our focus now. We must be as committed to controlling this virus now as we were throughout this pandemic. 3 STORY OF THE MONTH “A Friend in Need is a Friend Indeed”- Joint Effects Cell 020 has not been an easy year.

The later received three air condition systems that serve to both cool and heat the premises of this association. It is worth mentioning that this association provides services to 1250 people, 150 of which are children and 36 of them receive daily services at this association.

The education materials and COVID-19 PPE. importance of this CIMIC project is clear when we take into consideration the fact that this department looks after the most vulnerable population in this area. Among other activities contributing to the benefit of the civilian population, KFOR JEC has developed a still ongoing campaign against the COVID-19 pandemics which is very well received by the people of Kosovo. Radio K4 and PSYOPS print media have produced different products suitable for educating on preventive measures, warning against the risks and promoting the IiK and their anti- COVID-19 measures. As part of these efforts among the most notable projects was #stayhome, #wearthemask, #keepthedistance, #washyourhands and an anti- COVID-19 campaign with local “I am very proud of the work done by the KFOR celebrities.

Joint Effects Cell 6 KFOR NEWS Key Leader Engagements ey Leader Engagements are critical to the continued success of KFOR. To meet the demands of maintaining Kpeace and security in Kosovo, civilian and military actors need to work together. Without the support of the local population, KFOR cannot succeed, and without KFOR, Kosovo risks losing its continued peace and stability. The continued cooperation of the civilian populations are mission critical. KLEs enable KFOR to shape a peaceful Kosovo by influencing through negotiation and mutual understanding. COM KFOR, MG Federici, meets with high level dignitaries, politicians and community representatives of a frequent basis. It is through these KLEs that COM KFOR is able to address any pertinent security issues, maintain critical situational awareness and relay KFOR’s continued commitment to UNSCR 1244 of 1999. At regional levels, commanders meet key leaders in the local communities to address the specifics of challenges in their local spheres. These meetings allow for direct lines of communication between the local institutions and communities with KFOR and visa versa and are mission essential. MG Federici met acting President, Ms. Vjosa Osmani. The meeting was focused on ensuring that COM KFOR and Ms. Osmani have open lines of communication and a mutual understanding of the other’s commitment to peace and security in Kosovo including on how to address the challenges of COVID-19 on all communities within Kosovo.

I’m sure that this is not only a reflection point for us here in Kosovo, but for family and friends who await our return to our respective home states. I would guess that, for most of us, the halfway mark has come fast. It certainly has for me. First, with a bit of nostalgia, it seems like yesterday we accepted our guidons and uncased colors: Task Force Med Falcon shared the uncasing of their colors in the clamshell along with members of the KOA and KOS medical community, the maneuver and aviation battalion task forces and Special Troops Battalion (STB) TOA’s uncased their colors in their respective South Town/North Town gyms and clamshells, the EOD accepted their guidon following the traditional EOD sendoff explosion (followed by a not-so-traditional snowball fight), STB’s HHC held a very dignified ceremony in the South Town Theater, following quote from FM 3-07, where it defines what it calls “the and the LMT and MP transferred guidons in appropriate and essence of Stability Operations” by stating that “time may be the dignified ceremonies.

First, I want to say how impressed I am by the performance of MNTF-E since February. Together, we have accomplished much toward the security of the area, and most importantly, contributed substantially to the future development of the people of Kosovo. From the daily missions across the breadth of the MNTF-E area of operations, to the many development projects you have undertaken, you all should be proud of your accomplishments so far. In the middle of September I was able to travel back to the U.S. to support the training of the MNTF-E headquarters and the subordinate elements which will be replacing the current U.S. contingent of MNTF-E later this year.

Since the military humanitarian intervention in 1999, reconciliation process initiated by the European Union, U.S., and other members in the international community, began almost immediately after the war, in attempt to bring peace to the former Yugoslav republic and territory. However, little effort has been made in attempt to dissect and analyze the causes of the ethnic conflict, such as patterns of ethnic boundaries, given that ethnic tensions continue to challenge the peace-building process. This thesis research, therefore, investigates ethnic relations and changing ethnic boundaries in Kosovo between the years of 1980 and 2015.

  • Systematic Destruction of Orthodox Churches and Cemeteries Continued in 2003
    Ruins of the Holy Trinity Serbian Orthodox Cathedral in Djakovica Systematic Destruction of Orthodox Churches and Cemeteries Continued in 2003 by Carl Savich February 2004 In 2003, the attacks against Orthodox churches and cemeteries continued in Kosovo and Macedonia. On January 18, 2004, ethnic Albanian attackers broke into the Church of the Holy Archangel Michael in Stimlje and set the belfry on fire. The UNMIK police investigated the fire and filed a report. The conclusion was that the burning of the belfry “was accidental, caused by children playing.” The UNMIK report also referred to Stimlje as “Shtime”, the Albanian form of the Serbian name. The church was surrounded by barbed wire and the belfry entrance had a lock. The evidence clearly indicated a systematic plan that was ethnically and religiously motivated. This was an arsonist attack, a criminal act. By adducing that the attack was by Albanian “children”, UNMIK sought to negate criminal responsibility. Minors are by law deemed to lack the mental capacity to commit felonies such as arson. Two years ago, “small children” were alleged to have removed and carried off the entire copper roof of the Church of St. Lazar in Piskoti near Djakovica. Children were also alleged to have dug up the Orthodox cemetery in the town. UNMIK dismissed these criminal acts as random acts of violence by unknown persons. They have also been blamed on Kosovo Serbs to implicate the Albanian population. Outside the Stimlje municipal building, the Albanian national flag was flown. 1 Although UNMIK had its offices in the same building, there was no UN flag, only the Albanian national flag.

  • Section 1: Monitoring
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Legal Systems Monitoring Section (LSMS) of UNMIK Pillar III (Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe - OSCE) has conducted a six month review of the justice system in Kosovo. The report covers the period from 1 February 2000 to 31 July 2000. LSMS has monitored seventy-seven of the one hundred and sixteen District Court trials completed within these dates (66%). Of the completed trials in this period, one hundred-forty defendants were convicted and twenty-nine were acquitted (83% conviction rate). This report also makes reference to a number of trials that were not completed by 31 July 2000. The United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) is vested with all executive and legislative powers, which are exercised by the Special Representative of the Secretary- General of the United Nations (SRSG). UNMIK has the mandate to administer the justice system in Kosovo, and the Administrative Department of Justice is responsible for the overall management of the judicial system and correctional service. The OSCE, as a part of UNMIK, shares the responsibility given by the United Nations (UN) Security Council “to ensure that human rights protection and promotion concerns are addressed through the over-all activities of the mission.” This public report provides a comprehensive overview of the justice system from a human rights law perspective. The purpose of this report, in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 1244 and outlined in the United Nations Secretary-General’s letter of 12 July 1999 to the UN Security Council, is to assist UNMIK to “develop mechanisms to ensure that the police, courts, administrative tribunals and other judicial structures [operate] in accordance with international standards of criminal justice and human rights.” Although international human rights standards form a part of the applicable law, there is still confusion as to its application by the Kosovo legal community.
