NATO suspends training of Kosovo security force
Monday, March 8, 2010 at 6:14PM I wonder what they expected from a force mainly recruited from members of a guerrilla group? Pravda on the Potomac reports...
The alliance called off its support for the 2,500-strong Kosovo Security Force following the appearance of an armed honor guard at a parade on Friday marking the 12th anniversary of the killing of the leader of the Kosovo Liberation Army, the ethnic Albanian rebel force that fought Serbia in 1998-99.
The parade appearance was 'inconsistent with (its) non-military status,' NATO said in a statement. Kosovo's force was set up last year with a role limited to civil emergencies as part of a plan that allowed Kosovo to secede from Serbia. It replaced a similar force made up mostly of former members of the Kosovo Liberation Army.

NATO also protested the display of its flag at the parade. NATO says it is neutral to Kosovo's independence.

People deserve wealthy life and loan or short term loan will make it much better. Just because freedom is based on money.
Don't worry son I don't have financial problems. You should worry about transgressing my comments policy and testing my patience.

Apart from the fact that NATO helped arm and train the KLA and co-ordinated with KLA ground units which also included American mercenaries during the 1999 Kosovo war.
