"Standing (Устани) proud"... That's fine, just let's hope who does it, won't turn into a some kind of "Усташе".

Sorry for pun but I had to make that little language exercise. I am just paranoic if I hear anything "radical", "national" and so on.

I just don't see how Radicals can return Kosovo. Military can work for sure but it's a short-term solution. Long-term there are like 1.5 mio (or more) pesky Albanians who won't settle for anything less than controlling 15%-20% of the government... at worst 10% of the government.

Let's assume the scenario that Albanians decide to settle with autonomy and sharing the government on TERRITORIAL (not population-number) base. This is the worst-case scenario for Albanians and the very best-case scenario for Serbs (I exclude any violent scenarios).

Albanians 10% in the government of Serbia is the instant death to SRS-coalition and huge boost to LDP and alike. Why SRS would offer Albanians even the worst-case scenario and shot itself in the head? Of course, they won't. Thus: SRS is unable to offer any peaceful solution for Kosovo because it's not in their interest. Military action aside I am unsure, what "Kosovo je Srbija" does mean for them.

Provided that Radicals would form a cabinet and govern Serbia, this would be good for the governing individuals and for Kosovo’s independence. I think radicals ruling Serbia would make undecided countries decision much easier to recognize Kosovo’s independence, since there seems to be no real pragmatic partner on Serbian side to negotiate to. I think it is not an antagonism to allege, that Serbia lost Kosovo in recent years, because of nationalist governance. In the eyes of Europe the governments after the assassination of Mr. Dindic were no more reliable and not courageous enough to offer Kosovo Albanians something substantial less than independence. Nine years after the war decisions were needed, so the unpopular second best choice, Independence for Kosovo, had to be accepted despite bellyache. Concerns about Serbia’s future are appropriate because it is unlikely that radicals will lead it into EU.

Like I said before there is no point in speculating until an annoucement is acually made.

If this really happens later today then it paves the way forward for this new government to get on with governing ALL of Serbia by standing (Устани) proud, supporting (Подржи) economic development for all and going forward (Напред) !!!
