The Office of the National Coordinator against Trafficking in Human Beings today organized a conference to mark the EU Day Against Human Trafficking. Although there are efforts in combating trafficking in human beings, yet much remains to be done in this regard. The United States Ambassador to Kosovo, Greg Delawie, said that Kosovo is making significant efforts in combating this crime, but there is still much work to be done in order to meet international standards for eliminating trafficking. Delawie said that there is hope that Kosovo government will work for the establishment of shelters in municipalities in the north and in the identification of children who are forced to beg in order that they return to school. He also said that Kosovo institutions should have zero tolerance for all those officials who help human trafficking. Meanwhile, Kosovo President Hashim Thaci urged greater efforts by Kosovo institutions in combating trafficking in human beings.
