Moves by Kosovo to build itself an army have angered neighboring Serbia, which has floated the idea of military intervention.
In a vote set for Friday, Kosovo’s 120-seat parliament is expected to easily approve draft government-submitted legislation to turn its existing 4,000-strong paramilitary unit — Kosovo Security Force (KSF) — into an expanded, lightly-armed army.
Belgrade does not recognize the independence of Kosovo, a landlocked former Serbian province lost two decades ago after an uprising by ethnic Albanians and a campaign of NATO airstrikes.
