According to this, the US official said his country would "continue to support the process of normalization of relations between Kosovo and Serbia" and added that dialogue was "the best way to move forward."
Veseli and Palmer "discussed the latest developments in Kosovo" and relations between Belgrade and Pristina.
"The head of the Assembly provided Palmer with guarantees that Kosovo will fulfill its international obligations, part of which is the ratification of the agreement on border demarcation between Kosovo and Montenegro," the statement said.
Veseli "also said that normalization of relations between Kosovo and Serbia is very important for the future of the two countries and stability in the Balkans."
According to the same source, Veseli and Palmer "discussed the transformation of the Kosovo Security Force into the Kosovo Armed Forces" - with Veseli saying said that this process would be done in full coordination with the US.
When Kosova joins NATO, Bondsteel will become a NATO base manned by Albanians. btw, There is a NATO base in Tirana where I was previously stationed.

If you're really with US special forces, then please be honest with your future canon fodder. NATO membership means subjugating oneself to US command and being shipped to the Eastern front to fight Russians and Partisans similar to your ideological predecessor in WW2.
I sincerely Hope that you and your Albanian compatriots will enjoy dying for your American masters. I wish you complete fullfllment with this task.

America has left and doesn't care anymore. The typical American wants to disengage.
This frozen conflict is now a European matter.

The land where Camp Bondsteel was built has been leased for 99 years by the U.S. When Kosova joins NATO, Bondsteel will become a NATO base manned by Albanians. btw, There is a NATO base in Tirana where I was previously stationed.

Not really. Today Trump even told Putin to give crimea back to Ukraine!
Trump and his administration will help to establish the Kosovan armed forces and support its independence. Nothing has changed. And you serbs thought that Trump would give you back Kosovo to serbia? HA!
Welcome to reality, and watch and enjoy as Kosovo dissappears forever from serbia. Time to say goodbye to Kosovo forever

No surprises. How can US be on Serbia's side when Serbia has "good" relations with Russia, China, Iran, etc. All of those countries are undemocratic and anti US.

Trump will steamroll over serbia, if the serbs even think about touching Kosovo. Like i mentioned before, an proffessional army will be created and we will get some tanks and fighter planes. A bigger reserve, national guard, military police, military special forces, and armoured carriers. No more civilians with guns like last time! Try to get kosovo back this time!
