Such actions could lead to a destabilization of Macedonia, stated Allied Joint Force Command Naples Commander U.S. Admiral Mark Fitzgerald.

"The amount of weapons which was discovered is very large and it represents a great concern for us," he said in Pristina this Wednesday.

"Such actions could destabilize countries like Macedonia, so it's obvious that we're concerned," he stated.

Fitzgerald has described the action of Kosovo authorities to remove the mobile phone transmitters of Serbian companies as frustrating, and he invited the involved sides to find a peaceful solution.
