In brief

  • Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Glauk Konjufca represents Kosovo in New York.
  • The session starts at 9 p.m. Kosovo time and covers political developments, security and the dialogue with Serbia.
  • In April, Konjufca had called for an end to UNMIK's mandate and described the report as biased.

The United Nations Security Council holds its regular session on Kosovo today, Oct. 20. Kosovo is represented by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and Diaspora Glauk Konjufca, as the ministry confirmed to the Kallxo.com portal.

On the agenda is the U.N. Secretary-General's latest report on developments in Kosovo, covering the period from March 16 to Sept. 15, 2026. The report is expected to be presented by the special representative and head of UNMIK, Peter Due. The session begins at 3 p.m. New York time, which is 9 p.m. in Kosovo, and is expected to focus on political developments, the security situation and the Kosovo–Serbia dialogue.

What Pristina asked for in April

Konjufca also attended the April 9, 2026, session. At the time, he described the UNMIK report as biased, portrayed Kosovo as a stable democracy and accused Serbia of interfering in its internal affairs. He called for Serbia to recognize Kosovo and for those responsible for the Banjska attack to be brought to justice.

At the same session, the minister called for an end to UNMIK's mandate and for the mission to be turned into an office that would facilitate Kosovo's membership in the U.N. He also objected to the inclusion of an extensive annex on the Kosovo Specialist Chambers in the report, arguing that they do not stem from Resolution 1244.

Last year, Kosovo was represented at this forum by then-acting Foreign Minister Donika Gërvalla. Today's session comes as the debate over the Specialist Chambers remains heated in Pristina.
