"The operationalization of the Ammunition Factory and the development of Kosovo's military industry. During the new mandate, we will develop 'Made in Kosovo' military drones.

"Acquiring the status of a candidate country in the European Union will be one of our key commitments. Doubling the network of defense attaches and increasing the number of partner states with which we sign SOFA agreements are the steps we will take in the future towards full membership in NATO. We are expanding and deepening bilateral relations with non-recognizing states, with particular emphasis on non-recognizing states of NATO, the European Union and the Council of Europe", declared Kurti.
