America is in #recession but @JoeBiden and @TheDemocrats just gave #Kosovo $202 Million for energy infrastructure in the tiny Balkan nation.

Just a way to launder the money back to themselves.

202 million spent on education and border would have gone along way here. Oh well.

Fun fact:

The U.S. strongly backed the secession of Kosovo.

Never let it be said that the U.S. is anti-secession.

We keep people in Kosovo and this is our way of paying them for it.

Many in the US will defend sovereignty and self-determination all over the globe … just not within our own country.

See this is the kind of shite that pisses me off.

If all of America knew, they'd be pissed too, but nobody knows.

Just like the pork in all of these bills. Nobody has a clue.

im thinking we have been all wrong and backwards about this, crooks in congress arent getting 10% off the top, the country they send our tax money to gets to keep 10% and 90% comes back to congress in untraceable suitcases filled of cash

This deal was done through the Millennium Challenge Corporation. One need only look at its Board of Directors to see who will benefit. It's a who's who of Deep State types, lifelong bureaucrats, real estate moguls, heads of multinational conglomerates and partners in law firms known for foreign lobbying.

Camp Bondsteel is the operation headquarters of the Kosovo Force (KFOR) in Kosovo. It is located near Ferizaj[3] in eastern Kosovo. It is the Regional Command-East headed by the United States Army (U.S. Army) and it is supported by troops from Greece, Italy, Finland, Hungary, Poland, Slovenia, Switzerland and Turkey.

Camp Bondsteel is not open to inspections by the Committee for the Prevention of Torture (CPT), which has the right to visit all "places of detention" of the member states of the Council of Europe. Negotiations with KFOR were underway but were suspended since Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence was not recognized by the Council of Europe. The United States Army had been criticized for using the base as a detention facility housing detainees who were suspected of terrorism.

Kosovo's president awarded a medal to the late son of U.S. President Joe Biden for his service in building the country’s justice system after war ended more than two decades ago.

Beau Biden worked in Kosovo after the 1998-1999 war, helping to train local prosecutors and judges for the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe.

The NATO-led Kosovo Force (KFOR) has operated in the country as a peace support force since 1999; KFOR is responsible for providing a safe and secure environment and ensuring freedom of movement for all citizens, as well as assisting in developing the Kosovo Security Force; as of 2022, it numbered about 3,700 troops from 28 countries.

To put things in perspective, Kosovo is about the size of Delaware and Rhode Island, combined, with a population between that of Idaho and Nebraska.

Interesting place. Average folks are generally appreciative of American help during their war for independence, but (like a lot of places over there), very, very corrupt.
