Pristina, September 2015/ KFOR Commander, Major General Guglielmo Luigi Miglietta, met the troops on the ground belonging to the Joint Regional Detachments (JRDs), placed throughout Kosovo.
The current KFOR posture includes three Joint Regional Detachments (JRDs), covering different areas, from the North to the South: JRD-North HQ in Novo Selo, at “Camp Marechal de Lattre de Tassigny”, JRD-Centre HQ in Pristina, at “Camp Film City” and JRD-South HQ in Prizren, at “Camp Sultan Murat”.
Certainly KFOR posture is shaped in accordance with the security situation on the ground, remaining strongly committed to maintain a safe and secure environment and freedom of movement all over the Kosovo.
The JRDs, operating with non-kinetic assets named Liaison and Monitoring Teams (LMTs), provide KFOR with a “situational awareness”, through a liaison activity with the local institutions, International Organizations and especially with the local population. They conduct daily monitoring activities in order to get the pulse of economic, social and political situation.
All this kind of activities contributes significantly to improve the relationships among all the communities of the area but also to foster the citizens’ credibility towards KFOR.
With no doubts, the level of security throughout Kosovo, perceived by the local population, is considerably increased.
General Miglietta, during his visits, expressed appreciation for the high professionalism and the outstanding job performed by the soldiers of JRDs encouraging them to continue keeping the way of “Shaping the Change”.
