Paramilitary Groups: Ohrid Agreement
Implementations
Paramilitary Groups – 2001
The framework agreement called for a voluntary disbandment of the Albanian rebel group National Liberation Army (NLA) by 5 July 2001. This disbandment did not happen within the stipulated time frame. However, once NATO’s weapon collection goal was met in September 2001, the NLA leader Ali Ahmeti, on 27 September, said in a press conference that the Ethnic Albanian rebels in Macedonia had formally disbanded and returned to their normal lives. He also invited the Macedonian police to enter former NLA-controlled areas.[fn]”Rebels in Macedonia officially disband,” Agence France Presse, September 27, 2001.[/efn_note]
