Yes, I already said they were acting the authorization of 1244 and supposed to carry out the mandate and of 1244. What in the world are you arguing about?

KFOR is *not* a UN mission. UNMIK is. KFOR is a NATO mission. The UN’s DPKO has zero to do with it. EULEX is an EU mission, and not a UN mission. All three are authorized by UNSC 1244.

KFOR is not under UN command, only under NATO command, although NATO is technically obligated to follow the mandate of 1244.

Again, what in the world is your beef here?

“Again, what in the world is your beef here?”

I have no beef: YOU are the only who expressed high dudgeon when I pointed out that KFOR is multinational and is under NATO command, pursuant to UNSC 1244.

It’s similar to this: The Korean War 1950-1953 was fought against the communist North under the authority of the UN (hence, the troops that opposed the communists were called UN troops); and the UN placed overall command of those troops under US general Douglas MacArthur. Thus, it was not an AMERICAN war against the North, it was a UN war under the command of a US general.
