Summary/Abstract: In July 2023, Serbian Minister of Defense and now Serbian Prime Minister Miloš Vučević publicly accused Turkey of training, arming and holding military exercises with the Kosovo Security Forces (KSF), Kosovo's crisis response formation, with the explicit aim of transforming the KSF into a full-fledged army by 2028. It is a process that Serbia opposes, continuing to invoke UN Security Council Resolution 1244, which does not accept any other armed formation on the ground except the NATO peacekeeping force, the Kosovo Force (KFOR).
