4 ABSTRACT International organizations have played and are playing an important role in Kosovo. The Republic of Kosovo itself is a story with the contribution and efforts of international organizations in the creation of this new state and functioning as his best. The liberation of the people of Kosovo from Serbian brutal regime is contribution from the people of Kosovo but became a reality by the military intervention of NATO. Also the process of the reconstruction of Kosovo, the return of the displaced by force from their homes, the country's economic development, the development of local institutions, education, health, social welfare, etc. has been developed and continues to evolve through contribution of these international organizations. Relations of the Republic of Kosovo with the European Union, in the creation of a perspective and European agenda, which is being coordinated by all missions present, composed of EU member states that are in Kosovo, and various international organizations speaks for this collaboration. EU is giving a proper orientation and development to the institutions in general, strengthening the legal sector in particular, the implementation of integration policies, etc., dialogue with Serbia and meeting the criteria for visa liberalization and approximation with the EU. Through presence of missions, especially with EULEX and that in the rule of law in a clear way that together to meet the agenda and to have a European perspective.the European Union already has a basic component of how to build, develop and standardize a country as is the case with Kosovo and roads that this country is pursuing towards the EU. Now, after the independence country is making progress in establishing democratic institutions in the fulfillment of obligations, recommendations, on challenging issues even though much remains to be done, especially in creating and practicing strategies to have a perspective for Kosovo.

5 CONCLUSIONS The international organization has reached an important stage in the relations between states through the operation of different actors, where governmental and non-governmental international organizations play an irreplaceable role, taking into account the role and function that they play in resolving various global challenges. World politics are influenced by the activity of international organizations, whether governmental IGO or non-governmental INGO. These organizations have been and are increasing in number making it one of the most important and influential factor in various global issues. The role and importance of these INs are noted in the various targets that are promoting education, health care, economic development, environmental protection, human rights, humanitarian efforts, cooperation, establishment of norms and principles among member states, intercultural contacts and resolving conflicts. The Republic of Kosovo itself is a story with the contribution and efforts of international organizations in the creation of this new state and functioning as his best. The liberation of the people of Kosovo from Serbian brutal regime is contribution from the people of Kosovo but became a reality by the military intervention of NATO. Also the process of the reconstruction of Kosovo, the return of the displaced by force from their homes, the country's economic development, the development of local institutions, education, health, social welfare, etc. has been developed and continues to evolve through contribution of these international organizations. And the process of independence of Kosovo is done in coordination and in agreement with the international organizations that are supporting and partner of the Republic of Kosovo and a range of its sustainable development and the path towards integration in the European family. Currently the Republic of Kosovo has uninterrupted relationships with the European Union, hoping and working in the perspective and the European agenda, which is being coordinated by all present missions composed of EU member states that are in Kosovo, although we are not EU. What should be continued in the future are relationships that need to be kept through reformed processes to a greater empowerment in coordination with the plans of the EU and its missions currently operating in the country. Kosovo has made some progress in its state-building thanks to the work of many years of Kosovo and international organizations, to finalize the independence of 17 February 2008 and thereafter. EU is giving a proper orientation and development to the institutions in general, strengthening the legal sector in particular, the implementation of integration policies, etc., dialogue with Serbia and meeting the criteria for visa liberalization and approximation with the EU.

6 Through presence of missions, especially with EULEX and that in the rule of law in a clear way that together to meet the agenda and to have a European perspective. The European Union already has a basic component of how to build, develop and standardize a country as is the case with Kosovo and roads that this country is pursuing towards the EU. Now, after the independence country is making progress in establishing democratic institutions in the fulfillment of obligations, recommendations, on challenging issues even though much remains to be done, especially in creating and practicing strategies to have a perspective for Kosovo. Also, it needs a collaboration and harmonization with the EU as a necessity in the creation of sound institutions, the formation and functioning of the legal state where these together provide a formula of integration and development.
