"The sector for training expert personel has moved out of the building. At the administrative level we are now preparing a table for the new reconfigured UNMIK mission, and it is well known that it will be number 70% less staff", Lindholm told a press conference.

According to an earlier agreement, Kosovo Police Service representatives and EU officials no longer attend the regular Wednesday press conferences.

Meanwhile, UNMIK HQ in Priština is almost completely empty. Even though it remains unclear who will move into UNMIK's offices and who will handle its affairs, the building is almost completely empty and all UN property has been moved out of it.
