After all the chaos in Serbia, and having the comments of DSS oficials against West and US, you can kiss this baby (EU) goodbye.

About: "Kosovo is Serbia"

If you are convinced for 100%, that Kosovo is the craddle of Serbia ... then it would be logical to say
"Serbia is Kosovo"! Let's do it!

American politicians say that Serbia does not have the moral authority to rule Kosovo. You can easily recognize propaganda when they start spewing "moral authority" What was America's moral authority when it fought a war in Vietnam and killed 2 - 5 million civilians? What is America's moral authority to rule Iraq today? Go shove your propaganda up yourself. Let me tell the albanians who write here what will happen to Kosovo:
1) Kosovo won't get into the UN.
2) Kosovo won't get into the EU.
3) Kosovo will be partitioned.
4) Last year, America gave Kosovo $77 million. This year, America will host a doner's conference and cough up $350 million. Another $300 million will come from other sources. Next year, America will give Kosovo $50 million. After next year, Kosovo will be lucky to get $5 million per year. Why? Because history repeats itself: the same thing happened to Afghanistan after the Soviet withdrawal. Economic desperation drove the Afghans into the hands of the Taliban; the same will happen to the K-albos. And, someday in the future, President Chelsea Clinton will have to send US troops into Kosovo to oust your islamist regime.

Its interesting to watch world politics and understand their rational, in their haste to show cooperation in the international arena they easily ignore the hard questions and ongiong problems in the middle east that have been simmering for the last 100 years,and look at quick easy fix solutions and give them selves a pat on the back and a hand shake and say havent we done a fantastic job,and forget about the consequences that they have created.Current situation in relation to Kosovo is a prime example and reeks of New World Order situation, have we goverments that can still maintain some form of stately independance and not follow the rat race, other wise we will lose our own identities.The international community has a responsabilty to adhere to its UN charter, failure to do so will eventually make the UN a lame duck and will ultimatley lead to the breakdown of the EU / NATO as nations revert to their own rule of international law.Please look at the over all broad picture, in summary the international community has made a grave mistake in allowing the province of Kosovo to become independent just like they did when the State of Israel was proclaimed in 1948 have things changed since then i think not they have in fact created a cancer that will keep spreading and cause more pain and grief. Welcome to the free world ??????.

Of course he suggested to talk to pristina and with EU

Kosovo will never join EU because for joining EU all EU countries must agree, and with at least 3 countries against Kosovo will never join EU if Kosovo is not Serbia.

So, with his suggestions wants to show that Serbians wants Kosovo in EU because Serbia will join EU so Kosovo must be Serbia in order to join EU :)

If Kosovo will stay independend it would be isolated so if Serbia will talk to Pristina for Kosovo to be Serbia in order to join EU Serbia will show that Serbians want peace and prosperty for Kosovo and Albanians want war in Kosovo.

Anyway, Kosovo will not stay independent for long that is for sure, this was kind of a last statment of "the great power" America :)

Everyone knows that EU economy is much much powerful than the US economy so the next war will not be with weapons it will be an economical war.

That is why Serbia and Romania are cooperating because together those 2 countries would have something to say in EU, European Union which will become much powerful than any other Society.

When EU Army will be created I think we all agree that Serbian and Romanian would be the best soldiers because they all have suffered.

So you see, when Serbia will join EU Kosovo will not be independent, let's not forget that a British politician said that Western strategy for Kosovo as independent is "STUPID" and that was a word spoken by him :)

So, you see, Europeans don't want Kosovo as independent, they are just waiting for US to fall economicaly, and recession in US has already started, in about a year US will not have money to sustain a single war outside their borders.

Russia is an allied of China because China is becoming an economic power :)

It is all about economics, that is why Kosovo will not be independent because Europeans don't want to spend their money feeding some albanians gangsters in Kosovo.

That is why I am saying that : Kosovo is Serbia not because I say so but because it is :)

Serbia will not recognize Kosovo's illegal independence, but it will not self-isolate either, Tadić said after the meeting.

Serbia is doing exactely that ISOLATING ITSELF. In other words is called self infliction!

Talking the talk, but walking the walk!!!
The double talk will not get you far these days Mr. President, neither you or Prime minister kostunica and his cronies, like Samardjic, Ilic, Prorokovic and co.
People of Serbia, will take care of things, once they realize that talk is cheap and is not getting them anywhere.

"the NUMBER ONE priority for Serbia i to join EU"

You might as well have said:the NUMBER ONE priority for Serbia is to join ottoman-Turkey or fascist austria or fascist-germany or any of the post-colonial aggressors. How much can you people take, already?. Year in and year out of humiliation, threats and stalinist show trials until you realize that one time untermench always untermench. Forget about the €Uroloosers, go east where you belong dammit!

Well that's it for Tadic! There he goes again harping about joining the EU. I think that most Serbians are just about fed up with him even those who voted for him.

Tadic is like a woman (Serbia) who wants to marry a man (the EU) who continuously beats and abuses her!

He has done absolutely nothing to counter Kosovo's illegal Independence and on the day Serbia is suppose to stand up together in a massive demonstration to show the world their unity and absolute determination to keep Kosovo he is in Romania which cannot be nearly as important as being in Serbia on this day!

Serbia has the best of both worlds in regards to Kosovo.In 20 years time China will be the most important country in the world and it will be a cold day in hell before China allows either Kosovo or Taiwan to become members of the UN.As far as the EU is concerned Serbia will be economically ready in 5 years time to meet the criteria while Kosovo will not meet it even in 20 years time according to all European economists and as far as eventual membership goes it will be a second cold day in hell before Cyprus agrees to allow Kosovo to join.In the meantime Serbia does not have to be financially liable for 2 million impoverished unemployed citizens and should work on developing its economy to such a high standard that the average person in Kosovo will come to realize a future within a democratic and economically prosperous Serbia will provide a better long term existence.Shalom

I think the NUMBER ONE priority for Serbia is to join the EU. Serbia cannot afford to remain isolated while its neighbours become member states of the EU. Croatia is negotiating with the EU, Macedonia will start accession negotiations. Montenegro,Albania, Kosovo and Bosnia will also join the EU in the future. Therefore, my message for the people of Serbia is: concentrate on meeting the conditions for joining the EU. Forget about Kosovo!

I am Romanian,
and I have some experience in "patriotic popular gatherings", since I was already 14 years old in 1989, when we liquidated Ceausescu and Communism.

But I really doubt any of the people participating today in Belgrade protest were pressured in doing this. For them, this is not about ideology, is about grieving over the injustice done to their country...

For this unhappy outcome of the Kosovo crisis, my heart goes with both Serbs and Albanians. Serbs, because their are the, now, victims. With Albanians, because despite their happiness now, there is a saying they should pay attention to, as any inhabitant of Balkans and the World, generally:

"In Germany, they came first for the Communists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist;
And then they came for the trade unionists, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist;
And then they came for the Jews, And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew;
And then . . . they came for me . . . And by that time there was no one left to speak up."
(German Pastor Martin Niemöller, 1892–1984)

These are sad days, indeed.

May God forgive us all!

He is not escaping to Bucharest, he will be in Belgrade later today. Communication is the key and it is excellent that the Serbian president understood this.
"Hate and evil"..by god, put forth arguments not personal impressions.

Another Romanian

Romania is in a very difficult position, on one hand Serbia is a good neighbor of Romania with whom Romania has a lot of trade relations and brotherly Moldova which Romania is trying hard to help and protect against Russia in order not to create a "precedent", on the other hand is EU which Romania is trying to further integrate into EU, but in the long run, Kosovo's independence is the only right way, and I am sure Romania will also recognize Kosovo some day.

Kosovo could not go being in limbo forever getting fed by the EU taxpayers' money. Now that they will have independence the Kosovars should learn feeding themselves.

It's an EU investment that in the long run will bring savings and most important stability.

Theodor Morgenstern

pre 16 godina

Not a very original way to secure an alibi for what is about to happen in Belgrade later today: Mr. Tadic did his best to organize the rally which so strikingly resembles the Milosevic iconography (and technology) and then realized what it is turning out to be.
Escaping to Bucharest can not acquit him of the responsibility for what Serbia is turning into: a black hole radiating xenophobia, hate and evil all around herself.

Wondered why there were no old buildings around? Your ancestors bombed the city in May 1940. That's why all the buildings are modern.

Of course he suggested to talk to pristina and with EU

Kosovo will never join EU because for joining EU all EU countries must agree, and with at least 3 countries against Kosovo will never join EU if Kosovo is not Serbia.

So, with his suggestions wants to show that Serbians wants Kosovo in EU because Serbia will join EU so Kosovo must be Serbia in order to join EU :)

If Kosovo will stay independend it would be isolated so if Serbia will talk to Pristina for Kosovo to be Serbia in order to join EU Serbia will show that Serbians want peace and prosperty for Kosovo and Albanians want war in Kosovo.

Anyway, Kosovo will not stay independent for long that is for sure, this was kind of a last statment of "the great power" America :)

Everyone knows that EU economy is much much powerful than the US economy so the next war will not be with weapons it will be an economical war.

That is why Serbia and Romania are cooperating because together those 2 countries would have something to say in EU, European Union which will become much powerful than any other Society.

When EU Army will be created I think we all agree that Serbian and Romanian would be the best soldiers because they all have suffered.

So you see, when Serbia will join EU Kosovo will not be independent, let's not forget that a British politician said that Western strategy for Kosovo as independent is "STUPID" and that was a word spoken by him :)

So, you see, Europeans don't want Kosovo as independent, they are just waiting for US to fall economicaly, and recession in US has already started, in about a year US will not have money to sustain a single war outside their borders.

Russia is an allied of China because China is becoming an economic power :)

It is all about economics, that is why Kosovo will not be independent because Europeans don't want to spend their money feeding some albanians gangsters in Kosovo.

That is why I am saying that : Kosovo is Serbia not because I say so but because it is :)

Its interesting to watch world politics and understand their rational, in their haste to show cooperation in the international arena they easily ignore the hard questions and ongiong problems in the middle east that have been simmering for the last 100 years,and look at quick easy fix solutions and give them selves a pat on the back and a hand shake and say havent we done a fantastic job,and forget about the consequences that they have created.Current situation in relation to Kosovo is a prime example and reeks of New World Order situation, have we goverments that can still maintain some form of stately independance and not follow the rat race, other wise we will lose our own identities.The international community has a responsabilty to adhere to its UN charter, failure to do so will eventually make the UN a lame duck and will ultimatley lead to the breakdown of the EU / NATO as nations revert to their own rule of international law.Please look at the over all broad picture, in summary the international community has made a grave mistake in allowing the province of Kosovo to become independent just like they did when the State of Israel was proclaimed in 1948 have things changed since then i think not they have in fact created a cancer that will keep spreading and cause more pain and grief. Welcome to the free world ??????.

American politicians say that Serbia does not have the moral authority to rule Kosovo. You can easily recognize propaganda when they start spewing "moral authority" What was America's moral authority when it fought a war in Vietnam and killed 2 - 5 million civilians? What is America's moral authority to rule Iraq today? Go shove your propaganda up yourself. Let me tell the albanians who write here what will happen to Kosovo:
1) Kosovo won't get into the UN.
2) Kosovo won't get into the EU.
3) Kosovo will be partitioned.
4) Last year, America gave Kosovo $77 million. This year, America will host a doner's conference and cough up $350 million. Another $300 million will come from other sources. Next year, America will give Kosovo $50 million. After next year, Kosovo will be lucky to get $5 million per year. Why? Because history repeats itself: the same thing happened to Afghanistan after the Soviet withdrawal. Economic desperation drove the Afghans into the hands of the Taliban; the same will happen to the K-albos. And, someday in the future, President Chelsea Clinton will have to send US troops into Kosovo to oust your islamist regime.

After all the chaos in Serbia, and having the comments of DSS oficials against West and US, you can kiss this baby (EU) goodbye.
Bye Bye!
