Dear citizens of Kosovo and of all the countries of the World,
Kosovo just turned 1 year old. It was on the 17th of February 2008 that our country declared its freedom and its desire to grow and stand on its feet.
Today we celebrate that day.
In 1 year, we have been recognized by 54 UN Member states, most of the EU and NATO. The year that is coming, will also be fruitful and prosperous. In the face of all challenges, our young nation has come out stronger and took its place in the world. The reality of Kosovo has been accepted by the World. Yet a lot remains to be done.
To mark this occassion, KosovoThanksYou has started a new Twitter feed and prepared a celebration video. View the Kosovo Flag Around the World project.
The KosovoThanksYou team will be covering the celebrations from Prishtina and will publish photos and videos as they become available.
We wish you all a Happy Independence Day!
The Team
