Committee for the National Liberation of Kosovo and Metohija

The Committee for the National Liberation of Kosovo and Metohija was a political organization founded in 1943 by ethnic Albanian leaders during World War II. Its goal was to advocate for the rights and independence of the Albanian population in Kosovo and Metohija, a region historically contested between Serbia and Albania. The committee sought to promote Albanian national interests, cultural identity, and political self-determination amidst complex regional tensions. It played a role in mobilizing political activity and was a precursor to later movements advocating for Kosovo’s autonomy and independence.
