Army Chief: Downsizing KFOR would have security implications (B92)

Reducing the number of KFOR troops in Kosovo "would adversely affect the security situation" there, Serbian Army (VS) chief Gen. Ljubisa Dikovic said at a meeting on Thursday in Belgrade with KFOR commander Gen. Guglielmo Luigi Miglietta.

Dikovic stressed that the VS sees the KFOR administration as the most important element in maintaining security and stability in Kosovo and Metohija, and that downsizing it would have negative security implications, the VS said in a release.

Dikovic also "stressed that events that were a threat to security in Kosovo and Metohija should be called by their true name and the objectives of their perpetrators and possible consequences predicted in advance, and those in charge of security should act preventively, rather than only when incidents occurred."
