EU Vows Strong Support For Kosovo
January 15, 2007
January 15, 2007 -- The EU's foreign policy chief says the 27-nation bloc will increase its engagement in Kosovo following an upcoming decision on the territory's future status.
Javier Solana was speaking after talks in Brussels with Kosovo's President Fatmir Sejdiu, who said he wanted an "independent Kosovo integrated in European structures."
The Serbian province has been run by the UN since 1999, after a NATO bombing campaign ended a crackdown by Belgrade on separatist rebels.
