Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This House resolution expresses congressional support for Kosovo's integration into NATO, stating that full membership is a priority for U.S. national security interests in Southeastern Europe. The resolution reflects concern about Russian and Chinese influence expanding in the Western Balkans and calls for the United States to actively push for Kosovo's admission through NATO's established membership pathways, including the Partnership for Peace program and the Membership Action Plan. It also urges four NATO member states that do not currently recognize Kosovo's independence—Greece, Romania, Slovakia, and Spain—to change their positions to allow Kosovo to proceed toward formal NATO membership. The resolution calls for continued U.S. military and security assistance to strengthen Kosovo's defense capabilities and intelligence institutions. While this is a non-binding expression of the House's position rather than legislation that creates law or appropriates funds, it signals congressional intent to support Kosovo's security development and NATO integration efforts.
