Dear Messrs Vedrine and Cook,

After the consultations of the Kosova delegation with political and military factors, as well as with the people of Kosova, concerning the agreement for peace and self-government (dated February 23, 1999) from the Rambouillet meeting, this delegation and I personally say ``yes'' to this agreement.

We would be honoured to sign the agreement in your presence at a time and place of your choosing.

The agreement creates a chance and a perspective for Kosova and its people.

Our consultations in Kosova were necessary and very important. Now that a positive mood on behalf of the agreement has been created within the political and military structures, the Kosova delegation is able to sign the agreement.

In this success of ours, your contribution as well as the contribution of the administration of your countries was great. The fate of the Albanian people of Kosova is at a historical turning point and the Kosova delegation has a big responsibility. You have shown attention and patience concerning this fact.

Our delegation, and I, are very thankful for this.

We will expect your help, as well as the help of your governments, in the future. The people of Kosova have been and will continue to be allies of your countries, and you can count on this. Kosova needs freedom and democracy. Your personal contribution and that of your countries are essential and respected.

Sincerely,

The Kosova delegation chairman,

Hashim Thaçi
