Today, it is exactly 22 years since the military-technical Agreement of Kumanova was signed, which resulted in the end of the war of Kosovo, after the surrender of the army of former Yugoslavia and the capitulation of the Serbian criminal, Slobodan Milosevic.

Through this agreement, Serbia was forced to retreat all its police and armed forced from Kosovo.

The agreement was achieved after the bombing campaign was carried out at the time by the forces of NATO, which lasted 78 days, as well as the many different diplomatic efforts made in an attempt to end the Kosovo war, during which 10 000 people were killed, around 5 000 went missing and 1 million Albanians were displaced. On June 12^th 1999, the first NATO infantry troops embarked in Kosovo, which also marked the beginning of the retreat of Serbian forces.

On June 10^th 1999, the general secretary of NATO, Havier Solana, released the order ceasing all firebombing and the Security Council of the UN approved resolution no. 1244, where 37.200 KFOR soldiers were deployed from 36 countries.
