Hope China and Russia will save international law and block Kosovo entering UN!

EU should make clear that only EU members can ever join EU!

Kosovo can join EU as part of Serbia!

i am confused as to why serbia sees success if kosova is not in un ... what did serbia get out of un. we are part of te largest financial organizations and recognized by the most powerful economies. russia and china dont do anything for serbia - and they could care less.

in any case - kosova can easily unite with albania and with that become an instant UN and NATO memeber and soon EU member. trust me - albanians dont care about un .. they care about jobs, their families and peace. one thing is for sure tho - they will never want to live under serbia again (similar to montenegrins) ... thats reality - and you may call us an illegal state, temporary state - whatever - but we are free and not being abused by serbia on a daily basis.

Iseult Henry,
I don't see how you come out with the observation that the West/US are in breach of international law but Russia and China are not. Don't forget that both countries were part of a revolutionary mania that was out to destroy the existing order. Although their experience turned into a fiasco and had to change, today both countries are bureaucracies looking out for their own interests and don't care about international law -unless it is in line with their bureaucratic interests. Imagine where the world would be if there was no powers to counter these bureaucracies!
Let's be thankful of western democracies!

Kosovo was named by Serbia and much of it is church land. Any good book on the Middle Ages will tell about it being the center of the Serbian Empire before the Turks came. The capitol was Prizren - Serbian named. Serbia was the ones which developed it and established it. Without Serbs there would be no such place called "Kosovo" or the Albanian derivative "Kosova".

Serbian leaders are begging from everyone at this point because they have run Serbia financially and economically into the ground. They did some bad privatizations and now they have not much left to sell and they have closed down Serbian exporting companies while they spend and import more than ever. The west has been stingy on investment and the recession has made things worse. Serbia was foolish to count on western investment, when they have continually shown little enthusiasm and have invested in many things not good for Serbia anyways - like tobacco plants.

Serbia needs to produce and export more. They need to hire local companies to do construction work. They have to cut with the imports and buying things they can't afford. They need to stop wasting money and doing bad privatizations. Better not to privatize at all if you can not get a good guaranteed deal - and one which will be scrapped and full damages and penalties claimed if the new owner fail in the promises.

"Just to clear the waters. Albania and Kosovo/a recognise only one China when it comes to Taiwan. The comparison between Kosova and Taiwan is absolutely inappropriate and misleading. Everyone knows that Taiwanese are Chinese as nation, they speak Chinese and have Chinese culture. Serbia and Kosova has nothing in common other than myths created by Serbs over the history. It is more realistic for Albania to have its integrity over Kosova/o than Serbia.
(EA, 20 August 2009 22:50)"

what you wrote obviously doesn't apply north of the Ibar. The overwhelming majority there see themselves as Serb to the core. And I will bet you my last euro that this will come out loud and clear in any objective poll that you care (or dare) to conduct there.

Newsflash!! It's not myth but history.

Now what you claim is myth like the claim you make about being Illyrians who have disappeared a long time ago. Try saying you are related to big foot. At least there have been sightings of him.

EA,

If this is the way things should go I guess you want Kurds to get their own state? And Basques? Basques are very different to the rest of Spain?
And what about Tibet?

Mind that Taiwanese people are very different then Chinese people. Taiwan only now is dominiated by mainland Chinese.

But stil: NO SPECIAL DEAL FOR KOSOVO!

EA, please get a life! Kosovo will only become independent by mutual agreement!

Russian and China... guardians of international law. It is sad!

But hey, if the West doesn't do it, others have to.

So in this very case: thanks Russia and China!

Not in a million years will the Kosovo Albanian separatist leadership be able to have a state visit to Beijing.

The traditional Chinese-Serbian friendship is only strengthening, which means that under no circumstances can "independent Kosovo" join the United Nations.

Let's face it. "Independence" for Kosovo has been a disaster. Only nine recognitions within the past year, they are coming to a screeching halt as the USA/EU/NATO imperialists run out of Pacific islands and Wahabbist states to bribe. The Western imperialists will eventually grow tired of carrying this burden of failed "independent Kosovo" and realize that relations with the most important country in the region, Serbia, is more important.

Back to the drawing board, Hashim AKA The Snake.

elephant china doesn´t need the fly serbia, but russia does.

bushi bushi and his udi turned balkans over to russia, but china will help to get a partnership touch in this relationship.

be that economically (to also sit in jekaterinburg on the table that does the post-american/dollar world order) or be that the weapons the serbian army really wants (arctic sea anyone)?

the sooner the occupied parts of kosmet are liberated and other borders adjusted, the faster russia will get a peacful and calm backyard.

this position will be strengthend at the medvedev visit with the main topic future security architecture of europe.

Does Boris Tadic contemplate Tokyo to be his "5th pillar"? Or is Japan currently trading much with Serbia? The reason why I mention Japan is because it's an Asian nation that trades much with the world. At least Japanese motor vehicles and certain electronic products appear to gain recognition by some parts of the world even by United States.

"I particularly want to underscore that Serbia has had three pillars of its foreign policy over the past years - Brussels, Washington and Moscow," said Tadić, adding that he "may now confirm that Serbia had acquired its fourth pillar – Beijing"

Too many masters with different goals spoil the broth Tadic, but if it helps you win votes back home.

I am not a China fan. But China will block Kosovo's entry to the UN. Which is a very good thing!

Kosovo will never enter EU or UN!

"I particularly want to underscore that Serbia has had three pillars of its foreign policy over the past years - Brussels, Washington and Moscow," said Tadić, adding that he "may now confirm that Serbia had acquired its fourth pillar – Beijing".

Tadic has based his foreign policy initiatives over the past years on Brussels, Washington and Moscow. This is total nonsense, one cannot serve all these masters whose foreign policies are diametrically opposed. And now to add insult to injury he claims Beijing will be a fourth pillar. It is abundantly clear that you cannot serve 2 masters and anyone could tell you that the Washington/Brussels axis does not formulate policy based on justice or respect for sovereignty, never mind human rights. They are in constant breach of international law. Their main objective has been to destroy Serbia so how can anyone seriously believe that there will be a sudden outbreak of democracy and concern for justice among the foreign policy makers of Washington and Brussels? Better off with Russia and China.

Looks like Mr Tadic wants the roof to collapse upon Serbias head if he expects one of the four pillars to be from "Washington". Tadic is truly misguided, or just dihonest or maybe worse!
