The most important thing, on the basis of which this conference is mentioned, is that it conveyed the will of the people of Kosovo and its alignment with the anti-fascist allies. The resolution, which, among other things, states that the Albanian people of Kosovo and the Dukagjini Plain, expresses its free will that after the war, Kosovo joins the mother country - Albania. The Bujan Conference and its decisions have a special importance in the Albanian history, as they became the points of support and the most important and legitimate arguments of the demands of the Albanians for the independence of Kosovo and self-determination.
