Officially six stars represent the six largest ethnic groups in the state of Kosovo . Its designer , Ibrahimi , says the flag represents us today , started work immediately after the announcement. He has worked in June 2007 .
' Ideas for Kosovo flag after that is earlier than a competition . When was already talking that Kosovo can not be represented by symbols similar to those of state of Albania , and there were various exhibitions around the appearances of symbols , preparation of opinion . This is the version that I started to work after the announcement of the contest , which has had several criteria , restrictions and not to say based on those accepted flag of the Republic of Kosovo, which is even now . Criteria were not resemble other flags , no colors that represent any particular ethnic group in Kosovo or symbols that represent any particular ethnic group in Kosovo ' , Ibrahimi said .
