Aleksandar Radić, a military analyst, says that the USA is considering withdrawing forces from KFOR, while Turkey seeks greater involvement in Kosovo for strategic influence in the Balkans. Radić points out that the USA has long shown little interest in maintaining a presence in Kosovo, whereas Turkey aims to project its power and political influence through cooperation with the Kosovo Security Forces. Additionally, Turkey is attempting to provide certain types of weapons that other NATO members do not want Kosovo to have. Radić believes that Turkey has a clearly defined strategy.
US may pull troops from Kosovo; Turkey seeks more influence.
