The declaration of independence issued Sunday by Kosovo's ethnic Albanian majority.
They didn't wait , UN decision of the matter. This will encourage many separatist movements around the world as in south Sudan, Darfor, Chechnya in Russia and two areas of Georgia are wanting independence.

Also this declaration is against the international rule that national borders can be changed only if all parties agree.


The U.S. Australia, and many European Union quickly recognized Kosovo as an independent nation
Russia, China and some of EU members strongly opposed to letting the territory break away from Serbia.

This indicates how much US and UN make the things worse and not give the real solution.

I think Russia will do something especially they have some troops there

But Russia and China will use their veto power to block any attempt by Kosovo to gain a seat on the international body. Then "The so-called Kosovo state will never be a member of the United Nations.

I think the strategy of declaration was to provoke Serbs under the protection of the NATA and UN troops. They said that, since they couldn't hope to match the government in Belgrade on military footing, then the declaration either will be succeeded or provoke Belgrade to act but the international troops will abort it. Other way they reach their target that is giving Kosovo the Independence that it wanted. If that is really they think But the International community will know that it is not the end of the problem when will be they reaction in the future.

Kosovo is considered a center of Serb Culture. Serbs will not let this . May be they are not strong now to act but that not the end of the matter. This Kosovo problems started by the the expansion of the ottoman Em ire into the Balkans. The Turks defeated the Serbs in Kosovo and killed their king. During 450 years Bosnia and Kosovo was under Ottoman rule.Serbs will not agree about this and one day will act. Their churches and monasteries are there. Many Serbs are driven out by the reprisals committed by the Ethnic Albanian after Serbs troop withdrawn.and will be more after NATO forces withdrawn. This will be embarrassment for NATO as ethnic cleansing was one of the main reason that they intervened in the first place.

This is another example of double standards. Compare that and what is going in Palestine for ages. What US will do if Palestine declare their country and don't wait more years?. Why nothing was done to them by the International Organization.

It is also double standards on the terrorism's. KLA [Kosove Liberation Army] was terrorist organization , they planted several bombs prior outbreak of the fighting killing several Serbs. That why Belgrade was fighting them as USA went claim why they went to Afghanistan and why they stay in Iraq now after " the weapon of mass destruction" lie.

Firstly, whats up with the whole thing being in bold?
Secondly, Yes I agree this is double standards. I researched a little about Kosovo declaration of independence. I totally agree they should be a serprarte country. Thanks for the intresting thread!

Sorry but I don't agree with you. The problem is not Ottomans. The problem is the Serbs. They have the problems in their bloods. The Ottomans have bring peace to the lands from Austria to Iraq and from Azerbaijan to Morocco. The Kosovo war between Serbs and Ottomans in 1448.
1900-1448 about 350 years there has happened nothing, why? Because the Ottomans guarantied the peace.
But the imperialism,colonialism (The United Kingdom, France, Italy, Russia) have motivated the Serbs with wrong ideas about the Ottomans and their works of arts.

You don't know who Ottomans are. You learned the Ottomans wrong. Because they are not in your religion, right?
