The President of the Republic of Kosovo Vjosa Osmani received today a delegation comprising of Ulrika Richardson, United Nations Development Coordinator, Erol Arduc from UNHCR and Anna Rostocka from IOM, with whom she discussed Kosovo's preparations for resettlement of citizens from Afghanistan under the US Special Immigrant Visa Program.
Representatives of the three organizations thanked President Osmani for the readiness of the state of Kosovo to shelter citizens from Afghanistan and at the same time offered support to Kosovo institutions to come to the aid of refugees.
President Osmani on the other hand reiterated that Kosovo is open to citizens from Afghanistan.
“We are open to welcoming the people of Afghanistan because no one knows their pain better than we do. Moreover, we are doing this together with our strategic ally – the United States”, stressed President Osmani.
