Ibishi: Kosovo must buy new weapons
Serbia is arming itself more and more every day
not only with defensive weapons but also with offensive weapons. Meanwhile, it
has recently proposed the return of mandatory military service. In this
situation, Kosovo also needs to purchase weapons, not for offensive purposes
but to produce peace and security in the country. This is what the security
expert, Nuredin Ibishi, has assessed, who said that the Ministry of Defense
should be equipped with all the weapons so that Kosovo in the future is ready
to defend the country's sovereignty.
In an interview for KosovaPress, Ibishi also
mentioned the recent attacks which are being repeated in the north of
Mitrovica. He emphasized that even though there are fights between Serbian
citizens, they should be prevented by the Kosovo Police because they can raise
tensions in the country.
Ibishi has also commented on Serbia's proposal
to restore mandatory military service, while adding that the Serbian state has
bought weapons from various sources, but that it lacks the human factor, and
that it itself has accepted such a thing.
The throwing of the grenade in the north of
Mitrovica, according to the security expert, Ibishi, even though it was a
situation between Serbs, has the effect of raising the tension in the country.
Also, Ibishi has said that Serbia has proposed
the return of military service because no Serbian citizen is ready to sacrifice
himself like in the time of Milosevic. He emphasized that Serbia has assessed
the situation and therefore requested additional troops for the army.
Meanwhile, as far as
the armament of the Kosovo army is concerned, Ibishi said that Kosovo should
have been equipped with a missile system a long time ago.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Defense of Kosovo has announced that in addition to 246 anti-tank missiles of the "Javelin" type, it has requested the purchase of other weapons from the USA. /A.Drenica/
