NATO reinforcements begin arriving in Kosovo. About 500 Turkish troops from the 65th Motorized Rifle Brigade of Turkey will make up the bulk of NATO reinforcements.
The Turkish troops will be in Kosovo "for as long as it takes," the alliance said in a statement. Earlier, Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić said that clashes with protesters in the north of Kosovo were started by the police of the self-proclaimed Republic of Kosovo, not by the NATO contingent. He said that only pictures of the affected NATO military are shown everywhere.
