The United States Embassy in Kosovo commemorated the day the US mission in Pristina officially became an Embassy 18 years ago – April 8, 2008.
“With Kosovo officially an independent state and diplomatic relations established, the next step was to reflect this relationship in our diplomatic presence. On April 8, 2008, the status of the U.S. Mission in Pristina officially changed from U.S. Office to U.S. Embassy. As a result, the mission’s official title became the U.S. Embassy in Pristina,” the U.S. Embassy wrote in a Facebook post.
“This change came after the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and the Republic of Kosovo on February 18, 2008, one day after Kosovo declared independence on February 17, 2008. #Freedom250 #AmericanExcellence #KosovoJourneyToFreedom,” the US Embassy wrote.
