Notwithstanding its 80 percent Albanian Muslim population, Kosovo has mostly kept infiltration by ISIS or other Islamist radicals at bay. Hashim Thaci, the former head of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), elected president by the country’s National Assembly on February 26, told the German newspaper Handelsblatt last November, “We have acted against radical elements by arresting almost 100 individuals, including imams who had influence.
