Keywords:
Kumanovo agreement, significance, NATO aggression, Kosovo and Metohija, geopolitical positionAbstract
Immediately after the negotiations between the representatives of the government of the FRY and the Republic of Serbia and the KFOR forces, under the auspices of the United Nations, the Military Technical or Kumanovo Agreement was concluded, on June 9, 1999. Two facts are indisputable. The first concerned the definitive ending of the NATO aggression against the FRY and the Republic of Serbia, that is, the international legal, security and historical character of the agreement. Another fact was the misinformation, interpretation or even abuse of the agreement. The subject of work is the historical and geopolitical interpretation of relations that led to the signing of the Military Technical Agreement in Kumanovo, as well as the consequences of its implementation. From a conceptual point of view, the work consists of three chapters. The first chapter analyzes the determinants of the geopolitical position of Kosovo and Metohija. The second chapter points to the historical situation in Kosovo and Metohija, especially after the World War II. The third segment is the most important, and it relates to the causes that led to the signing of the agreement, and the concequences of implementation.
