Typical European politics. They are moving far away from the map of political influence in the world. Thank God. This world owes a lot of problems to European politics.

Agreed..."white man's burden" seems to be still prevelant around these parts...its sad really. Belgrade shouldn't even be concerned about Kosova, just like Germany should never have been asked about occupied France, and France about Algeria.
