Cindy McCain visits Kosovo
Mrs McCain took 4 days out from her husband, Senator John McCain’s, Presidential campaign tour to visit ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø in Kosovo during March.
She has previously visited ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø’s humanitarian clearance operations in Angola, Sri Lanka, Mozambique and Cambodia.

Mrs McCain concluded her visit by meeting with Kosovo’s President and Prime Minister. Both fully endorsed ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø’s resumption of mines and cluster bomb clearance in Kosovo.
