Andreas,

"… Even some of the Serbian leaders have said a year and so ago, that they were not sure if Russia aproach was on their interests..."

Well, we also have fifth column, but support among the Serbs for this people is close to zero.


"… European Serbs, show your loyalty and turn your back to Russia and to the past...It is time to look at your bright future and accept Kosova as an independet state that will fully respect the rights of all its people including serbs and other minorities..."

What are you smoking, I want to try some.

"…Sure that (Russians) are not bothered that much about Serbia…"

" Moscow will consider any changes valid if they are accepted by Belgrade and the Serb community in Kosovo, the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement Saturday"

It is not at all about international law but about Serbia's interest!…"

EA, Andreas, there is nothing strange about that. Ties that connect Russians and Serbs are very deep. They are not based on the temporary short interest, but on the common culture, history, religion… Russians and Serbs are brothers and no meter what temporary balance of power might be, we do care for each others well being. Through the history, Russians always helped us when they were in position to do so, and Serbs (and our brother's Montenegrins) did what they could to help Russia.

It is you with your temporary alliance with US that should ask questions what reasons are behind American support and how long will it last.

"… First, US will be fine, up and downs are OK…"

Al. compare this:

"… How did Russia do in Afghanistan in 1979?…"

It is much more relevant to ask how is US doing in Afghanistan (and Iraq) NOW, as Russian involvement was quite some time ago, and Russia doesn't have any problems with Afghanistan at the moment.

But if you want to know history from the 80's do google research on Zbigniew Brezinsky.

The greatest mistake the KLA have made is thinking that Kosovo is either a Merc or Bmw which can be stolen, hidden and then rebirthed with forged documents and call it legal. the biggest problem there is the KLA can't hide Kosovo and they can't forge the new documents to give the illusion of legality. The Kla should be tried for stealing and being in position of stolen goods, namely Kosovo.

Ahmet Isufi. You say that Russia should solve their own problems first. I say that America should solve their own problems first as they are many.

It goes both ways you know. If in your opinion Russia should only concentrate on their domestic front, then why is it not your opinion that America should only concentrate on their domestic front only as well.

America has bought into many problems around the world which they have no hope of solving already, so it is them who should back off for a while until all their problems at home and abroad are addressed.

I have stated this already to you but you still seem to be coming up with the same old worn out line.

Russia will be involved whether you like it or not and I don't think they will back off just because you don't like it. Now I suggest you live with that and come up with some constructive argument for your cause instead of this rubbish.

Mr. Tadic,

You should be more aggressive in this issue as the EU INVADERS are trying to enforce EULEX on the ground even without UNSC approval. Many thanks to Russia for their continued support for Serbia and for other states who did not recognized kosovo U.D.I this is really a david and goliath showdown as the imperialist US, UK & EU are using their super power might to bypass the UNSC. sadly Ban Ki Moon is obviously with the corner of the occupiers of kosovo.

Princip, UK

pre 15 godina

The EU need to be reminded that they themselves last year comprehend that there can be no EULEX in Serbia's province irrespective of how individual states within the EU may act individually now. The EU cannot act in Serbia's Province without Serbia's consent unless it is against Serbia and they are only too aware of their own literature staing so implicitly last May when they thought they would get a UN SC vote through they agreed;

"Guiding principles for the envisaged
international/EU presence in Kosovo
• All preparations made by the EU in its planning for a future
presence in Kosovo are made without prejudice to the outcome
of the status negotiations. A new UN Security Council
resolution is necessary for the future implementation of a
status solution, in particular for the civilian and military international
presence overseeing implementation."
http://ec.europa.eu/enlargement/pdf/serbia/kosovo/eu_preparations_may_2007_en.pdf

For the EU to now act against its one decisions it would seem the EU principles are;

Pacta sund Servanta unless of course you dont get your way and then you make it all up and give yourself the illigetmay to carry on!

As exemplified by the decit the EUcrats hold in respecting Serbia's soverignity and the disrespect they hold for democracy in the Irish referenda!!

Tadic must be comprehending now what Samardzic quite eloquently said "“there is no ’easy’ way for Serbia to tell the international community that it does not accept the EULEX mission". http://www.b92.net/eng/news/comments.php?nav_id=51241

Tadic's fine words this Friday mean nothing when they are easily ignored and if the EU continue to implement their mission against the Pacta sund Servanta of 1244 Tadic should do the decent thing and let someone else get on with it if he cant! Surely the time has come for Tadic to comprehend that so called "friends of Serbia" true interst lie not in that of Serbia but of their own interest alone and that is not even in the interst of the 500 million EU citizens either as shown in Irish refenda!!!
