Agim Çeku (born 29 October 1960) is the Minister of Security Forces for the Republic of Kosovo. He has been Prime Minister of Kosovo and a chief of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA). He was born in the village of Qyshk near Pejë, in the Yugoslav Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija (1946-1974) (present-day Kosovo).
Çeku is an ethnic Albanian who served as an officer in the Croatian Army during the Croatian War of Independence against the breakaway Republic of Serbian Krajina, and was military commander of the KLA during the 1998-1999 Kosovo War, and then commanded the Kosovo Protection Corps under the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo.
After Agim Çeku finished the secondary military school in Belgrade, he attended the Zadar Military Academy. Shortly afterwards, he joined the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) as an artillery captain. In 1991 the Yugoslav wars broke out and he deserted from the JNA and joined the Croatian National Guard, when the Republic of Croatia found itself at war in breaking away from Yugoslavia.
