I think that Gorbachev was quite accurate in his statement about the EU and NATO getting involved in a country (Serbia) that is neither in the EU nor in NATO. This issue sits firmly in the seat of the UN and we know that it will not pass there as there are many other countries with the same issues.
Who is the EU to tell the Serbs to give up their land, culture and history while they themselves have crushed any such movements within their own borders? The British having robbed a large slice of the Irish nation, the Spanish with the Basques, the French with the Corsicans?
Even if the EU does manage to force the Serbs hand at this moment in history, there will not be peace. Within perhaps 5, 10 or 50 years blood will be spilt again for this peace of land that the Serbs will never let go. Just because a minority becomes a majority within a country it does not give them the right to carve up a piece of land and annex it to Albania. Would the US allow Texas or California to secede and become a part of Mexico? Somehow I doubt it. The only reason that NATO got involved in the first place was that there was no longer a Warsaw Pact and they had to fabricate a reason to justify its existence.
