Reaffirming the close partnership between the United States and the Republic of Kosovo.

This non-binding House resolution (HRES 648) reaffirms the U.S. commitment to Kosovo as a close partner, stating it remains U.S. policy to support Kosovo's recognition as a sovereign, independent, democratic state within its recognized borders. It highlights existing U.S.-Kosovo cooperation on security, economic development (including a $202 million energy compact), and Kosovo's role in accepting Afghan refugees. The resolution emphasizes shared democratic values and U.S. support for Kosovo's integration into international institutions like the UN and NATO. As a procedural resolution, it does not create new laws but formally expresses congressional support for ongoing U.S. policy toward Kosovo.
