The Latest: Kosovo blames other nations for radicalization (Washington Post))

 UNITED NATIONS — The latest on the high-level U.N. General Assembly meetings (all times local):
1:15 p.m.

Kosovo’s foreign minister says that other nations have exported violent extremism to his country, which has seen a greater percentage of its citizens fight for the Islamic State group than any nation in Europe.

Authorities say that about 70 citizens of Muslim-majority Kosovo are believed to be active fighters in Syria and Iraq.

Enver Hoxhaj tells The Associated Press that “radicalization of young people in the Balkans has been exported from different NGOs and clerics” from the Mideast.
