 Following the ceasefire and presence in the country of the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo and other international organisations, the demand for prostitution soared.As well as women turning to prostitution voluntarily, some were trafficked from Moldova, Bulgaria and the Ukraine.Amnesty International UK Director Kate Allen is quoted as saying "Women and girls as young as 11 are being sold into sexual slavery in Kosovo and international peacekeepers are not only failing to stop it they are actively fuelling this despicable trade by themselves paying for sex from trafficked women."
