Military[]

Hungary currently has 353 troops serving in Kosovo as peacekeepers in the NATO-led Kosovo Force.[3]

Notes[]

a.   ^ The political status of Kosovo is disputed. Having unilaterally declared independence from Serbia in 2008, it is formally recognised as an independent state by 97 UN member states (with another 15 recognising it at some point but then withdrawing recognition), while Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory.
