Princip, UK

Luciano - I think the united front was shown via the elections with pratically all parties (representing approx 90% of the vote) stating they will not give up Kosovo & Metohija. This is not a bluff but something that all leading Serbian politicians have now placed considerably credibility to.
I guess we shall see when the talks begin but Serbia has always wanted to be active in the negotiations and will once again stand united behind it's principled stance. Athisarri has always wanted to ignore the principles upon which the UN is based and the Helsinki agreement but they will have to be discussed fully - if not with Serbia then with Russia & China.
This has not & is not a matter of concessions - it never has been - that is why some see the Serbs as obstructionalist - when in fact it is generally a failure of the west to comprehend that Yugoslavia's collapse is complex and multi-faceted and quite often the roots of the problem are very deep. There exists a different mindset in the South East beyond just mere carrots and sticks.
I really do hope a real compromise can come about next week as it really is in everyones interest. Creating new borders and a nation that has no historical legitamcy with the threat of further violence is the furthest point one can be from a truly lasting solution. In the long term it sends out a very strong message about democracy by force of numbers. This is ominous to any nation state.
