Kodheli: “This year we will increase the level of participation in Resolute Support Mission, Afghanistan. We are in the process of exploring and sorting out the legal base to support the efforts of the anti-ISIL coalition on the ground. We are closely looking for involvement in the NATO maritime operation in the Aegean Sea, to assist in the migration crises. It's time now for NATO to open a new page of structured dialogue and partnership with Kosovo.
Although the opposition media rush up to flap on the front page every abusive news, without verifying neither the news nor the source, although the news of a Greek newspaper referring that a vessel launched from Durrës was carrying weapons and captured in a Greek port turns to be completely fake, and although the Ministry of Defence (MoD) has nothing to do with this event, but in purpose of using every moment for making transparent the procedures that MoD follows, informs the public opinion as below:
Sapper forces of Support Command and EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) company finished the destruction of ammunitions stored in the tunnels of Klos. The AAF tunnels in the municipality of Klos were contaminated and cemented as a result of the incidents and explosions that occurred in 1997.
