| UAE minister to build 50 mosques in Kosovo ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ http://abcnews.go.com/wire/World/reuters20000819_718.html DUBAI, Aug 19 (Reuters) - The United Arab Emirates" defence minister has offered to build 50 mosques in Kosovo at his own expense, the official WAM news agency reported on Saturday. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum"s project would be carried out with the help of UAE troops serving in the NATO-led peacekeeping force in the province, WAM added. It did not say how much the building work would cost. Kosovo"s ethnic Albanian population is nominally Moslem, while the minority Serbs belong mainly to the Orthodox church. International authorities took responsibility for Kosovo in June last year after a NATO bombing campaign to drive out Serb forces. The UAE has about 1,200 troops in Kosovo and another 250 soldiers operating nearby. |
