Today, marks 13 years since the adoption of the Constitution of the Republic of Kosovo.

The Constitution of Kosovo was ratified on April 9, 2008 and entered into force on June 15, 2008. The Constitution is the highest legal act, which guarantees the basic rights and freedoms of all citizens of the country.

Most of this constitution derives from the Plan of former president Martti Ahtisaari, thus giving specific rights to minority groups and a safer environment for all citizens of Kosovo.

The Constitution defines Kosovo as a state with a neutral view of religion - Article 8.

It has 14 chapters and 162 articles.

April 9 is officially a state holiday in Kosovo, which means that the institutions have a day off today.
