Kosovo's membership in NATO has become part of the political campaign. Such a decision is an essential step as it offers a strong guarantee against the violation of democracy and the violation of territorial integrity and security.
This is how security experts who analyze for A2 CNN assess the real chances that this will happen soon. Former Colonel Hysen Gecaj says that geostrategic opportunities should be exploited.
The main challenge that the new government must overcome is to work with states that have not yet recognized us, so that they do not become an obstacle, writes A2 CNN.
The executive director of the Institute for Hybrid Warfare Studies OCTOPUS, Arben Fetosh, tells A2CNN that Kosovo is within NATO's orbit, with the KFOR mission, and is in an internationally coordinated process for the transformation of the KSF into an army with full capabilities.
Fetoshi emphasizes that greater political will and pressure from the United States are needed for NATO accession to happen quickly.
However, there are two positive aspects among all the factors that are not in Kosovo's favor in this regard: Kosovo has long been cooperating closely with Euro-Atlantic allies; NATO's history also recognizes rapid memberships in exceptional circumstances. (A2 Televizion)
