Draskovic: Kosovo cannot be U.N. member

Serbia's foreign minister says the government should admit it does not govern Kosovo and let it join all bodies except the United Nations.
"Serbia should clearly state that it does not govern Kosovo, that it shall not govern Kosovo, and that it is up to the (ethnic) Albanian majority to govern Kosovo, with respect of the Serbian rights," Foreign Minister Vuk Draskovic told state-controlled Radio-Television Serbia.
"Serbia should state that we absolutely support the independent and parallel path of Kosovo towards Europe and that we have nothing against representation of an independent Kosovo in all international organizations, except in the United Nations.," Draskovic said.
"There cannot be a seat (for Kosovo) in the United Nations and there is no change in the present borders with Albania and Macedonia," he said.
Draskovic called his proposal a compromise following Kosovo Prime Minister Agim Ceku insistence on the province's independence.
In Vienna, Austria, Serbs and ethnic Albanians, with U.N. mediation, have been negotiating the future of Kosovo, whose 2 million population is 90 percent ethnic Albanian.
Formally, Kosovo is part of Serbia, but it has been under U.N. administration since 1999 when NATO air sttacks forced Serbian troops to withdraw.

This is just another way to buy time. They want to invade again when the geopolitical climate is right.

Mir,

Serbs too should fear a repeat. Didn't you guys suffer a lot during WWI and WWII? The great sacrifice shown at Kosovo and then 400 years of great suffering under the Turks? Remember that history comes in packages, and it probably repeats in packages.

It's intresting to read Mir's comments. He's a clear example of 'pizda', word used by his language. One day you read how he promotes peace and cooperation and the next day war and misery. Dude, I strongly favor Ivan's words but in your direction. You need to visit Dr. Psychovic.

Mir,

You support moj kurac. There will be no partition, and stop dreaming of albanians fighting each other. Forget what Serbia Academy cooked for a long time. See where Serbia is today? Its all because your famous Academy fairy tales. You will soon see Vojvodina i Sandjak passing the way Dardania is.

Let's be serious, Kosovo will always have a Serbian influence no matter how many Albanians there are and no matter how many churches the Albanians manage to destroy. The very fact that Christianity has been able to survive there through 400 years of Muslim occupation and through decades of Albanian destruction should be a sign for all of us--Christ is watching from the heavens.

Remember, it was the Christian Serbs who fought the Muslims for Kosovo--they've always come out victorious. Yes, they've had setbacks, yes they've suffered, yes they've lost battles. But they have NEVER lost the war. With Christ they cannot lose. God bless.

The Greek,

Kosovo had Serbian influence while is was occupied by Slavs. That era is finally gone. You should support new reality in this region as your prime is. As regards to christianity, you should know that Albanians were all christian before Ottoman rule. Christianity is not endangered with Albanians. Its Albanian heritage, albanian prosperity.

"But they have NEVER lost the war. With Christ they cannot lose. God bless."

I agree, that's why Albanians won the war.
