Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives in support of the integration of Kosovo into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
This resolution expresses the House of Representatives' support for Kosovo joining NATO, directly affecting U.S. foreign policy and relations with the Western Balkans. It outlines a specific path for Kosovo to become a full member by first joining the Partnership for Peace and then the Membership Action Plan. The bill also calls on the United States to encourage other NATO countries that do not recognize Kosovo to change their stance and to provide security assistance to Kosovo's defense and intelligence agencies. Additionally, it emphasizes that improving relations between Kosovo and Serbia should not delay Kosovo's progress toward NATO membership.
