Today, 16 new officers of the 2024 generation of new cadets of the Kosovo Security Force graduated at the “Adem Jashari” barracks.
Present at this ceremony was the Minister of Defense, Ejup Maqedonci, who, congratulating the new cadets, said that the June of important historical events for freedom and independence is ending this year with the addition of ten new KSF officers.

He added that the Kosovo Army is moving rapidly towards development with full capacities as a professional army.
Meanwhile, appreciating the professionalism of the KSF members, Maqedonci said that the cooperation with the allied countries is the result of these values.
Maqedonci also thanked the families for supporting the cadets, saying that he has nothing that makes him prouder than seeing the growth and development of the Army of the Republic of Kosovo.
Meanwhile, the Commander of the Center for University Studies (CUS), which aims to train cadet-officers with military values, Major Mimoza Gudeci, on her last day as commander of this center, shared three lessons with the newly graduated cadets.
She said that duty, honor and homeland are words that should always be remembered so that their every action and decision will be right and good.
