The unilateral independence of Kosovo was declared in February 2008. The Bush administration had detached Frank Wisner Jr., the son of the legendary CIA Frank G. Wisner who led the CIA-MI6 coup dEtat against Iran in 1953.
Frank G. Wisner Jr. was entrusted in establishing the legal framework of Kosovo which was conducive to establishing a so-called Sovereign State.
Kosovo is a member of the Bretton Woods institutions. Kosovo seeks membership of NATO, the EU and now Interpol.
The Interpol Executive Committee has decided that the application of Kosovo for membership in Interpol would be put on the agenda of the General Assembly to be held in Beijing, China, from 26 to 29 September 2017, Government of Kosovo stated Monday.
In a bitter irony, Kosovo president Hashim Thaci is still on the list of Interpol in relation to his links to organized crimes and the drug trade. Last February [2017] president Thaci requested the secretary- general of Interpol, Juergen Stock, to cancel warrants for the detention of former Kosovo Liberation Army fighters who are wanted in Serbia over war crimes allegations.
