The Serbian province of Kosovo is hoping for an independence day parade sometime in the next few weeks, and why would they do this?! I recall the autocities placed on the Albanian majority living in the province by former nutjob Slobadan Milosoviec, and how a deep resentment for being part of the country that is, but totally forming your own country? Over a decade after NATO bombed Kosovo and sent UN troops there they want to break away and struggle to become a country. Which in turn is strongly backed and supported by the EU and the US, I don't know if its beacuse of the USA's own history of revolting against a "tyrant" or just that it will piss off Russia but it seems like a second Kosovo War waiting to happen. The Serbs are going to be real pleased to give up a third of their country, yeah right! They have no economy, they have been governed by a UN administered mission since 1999 so they use the Euro already but I just don't know where they are planning to take their independence, it was the poorest province in the former Yugoslav republic. The best outcome I see of this is assimilation into Albania, which would also upset the Serbs, reducing their country to increase a unfriendly neighbors?!
