Meeting in Prizren postponed

The K-Albs choice for meeting in Prizren and around the time of Orthodox Christmas. How symbolic - Prizren League and a stab in the eye to Orthodox Christians for Christmas. It didn't suprise me that Stipe Mesic was more than anxious to go, so that he could symbolically stick it to Serbia and all Serbs; but I was surprised why Belgrade-born Filip Vujanovic would have even considered going there during that time. Glad this K-Alb sponsored fashion show ain't happening.

Arta,

Do you really believe in your own words? I believe you hide behind passion, hate and vengeance behind a keyboard, rather than constructively going out to do something productive.

Don't you worry Mircea!

Serbians are A very intellectual race and will probably skip a few grades.

Also, my sources tell me that Serbia is a unique case and will be fast tracked into the CLUB.

Next evidence that so-called "Kosovo government" have any political power... No chance to join EU/UN, Macedonia ignores their meeting...

Whether arrogance or ignorance, Sejdiu looks like a clown here.

Kosova-USA said yesterday , "Guys,guys,stop jumping to conclusion prematuraly. Ivanov will be in Prizren on that day. Just watch and see."

Clearly, you are the one who is premature here.

Well, Kosovo does not have a president as Kosovo is not a state.

But meetings are fine. As long as international law is respected!

It is time the Albanians revoke their illegal (!) declaration of independence!

Then real (!) talks can start!

Greetings from a real state in Western Europe!

Outgoing Croatian President Stjepan Mesić was also supposed to travel to Prizren. He was not among those who had telephone conversations with Sejdiu on Tuesday.

There was no need for a phone conversation with Mesic,since this was his idea to beging with. He came up with idea for these heads of states to meet in Prizren,excluding Tadic all together. I wonder if Tadic would have come if he was invited???

Kosova-USA...

You sound as if you could be an adviser to Sejdiu.

Ramblings...poor excuses.

You are wrong, arta. Serbia will gain access to the Adriatic exactly because of Russia. Have you been to the Montenegren coast lately? All you hear spoken is Russian. They have bought up a lot of hte aseaside. Milo will sell his own mother for money.

Dragan, bottom line: They support Albania, Russia supports Serbia. So far the West won. Do you know why Serbia will 'never' have access to the sea? Russia.

Prizren is a charming place. Everyone should go and visit at least once in their lifetime.
Different architectural influences make the town a delightful experience.
Only Kalaja represents several stages of human history, counting for Roman, Byzantine, Serbian, Albanian, Turkish influences.

Robby,
Serbia is always invited, although she chooses to pass on many invitations.
It is a pity that many good chances for constructive dialogue are missed.
It is understandable that she will need more time to adjust to the new reality.
Some figs ripen later that others.

I think Tadic should also had been invited, perhaps a joint Balkan leaders meeting could ease some tensions and show others we can start solving issues without outside help. Of course leaving the big powers in chock, but its our future we are talking about.

I really think they should invite Tadic considering that he is the main problem in the region.

I assume nobody was planning to stay overnight, but how could they keep the electricity on for the duration of the meeting?

Hello! Serbia has war crimes arrest warrants for the people that head K_Albanian puppet government. What in the world would Serbs have to discuss with them but, why did you murder policemen and innocent civilians in KiM in the late '90's?

The ONLY reason the meeting was called off is because your masters thought that it should be called off. Who thinks otherwise also thinks that Kosovo is independent,harvesting other peoples organs to fund terrorism against civilians is justified, and that the West is enamored with Albanians and their ways.

May orthodox christmas day is a good choice for a meeting for hope, but Kosovo should invite also Serbia. Conversation is the first step.

I think Tadic should also had been invited, perhaps a joint Balkan leaders meeting could ease some tensions and show others we can start solving issues without outside help.
(Pejoni, 23 December 2009 14:35)

great idea. some practical moves towards this goal would include avoiding reliance on "outside help" in order to make unilateral steps.

>Prizren is a charming place. Everyone should go and visit

I'm charming also. I'll come and visit again and bring my friends with me including one sitting right across me born and raised in Prizren.
But will you like it my boy.
So that you can like it more when it happens what you need to do now is stop burning and looting Serb churches and cemeteries in Prizren and all around Kosovo. Stop intimidating Serbs who live in ghettoes defended with barbed wire. There is no cultural or architecture trace of Albanians in Kosovo. If you kill all Serbs or destroy all Serb heritage still there'll be no Albanian heritage in Kosovo. So why do it? Stop for your own sake.

Kosova-USA said yesterday , "Guys,guys,stop jumping to conclusion prematuraly. Ivanov will be in Prizren on that day. Just watch and see."

(Roger7, 23 December 2009 12:56)

Not really.
On that day means when that meeting will take place,but Ivanov will be there.If the original date has been moved,must have been for technical reasons,but that meeting will take place.

Tabalija,
A simple answer to your question would be an empathic yes.
I would absolutely love if you came,
I’ll put in a good spread too.
The rest of your comment is emotionally charged and politically motivated.
I’m too lazy to get into the groove and try to tell you how outdated your comment is.
I’ll try to do it though through the words of another person.
Namely through the statement of Mr Meta, Albanian FM who today entertained in Tirana a delegation of Kosova Serbs.
I quote, Mr. Ilir Meta


“It was a pleasure to receive the political representatives of the Serb community in Kosovo, headed by Assembly Presidency member, simultaneously, Chairman of the Liberal Party of Kosovo Serbs, Mr. Slobodan Petrovic, accompanied by Minister of Communities and Return, Mr. Sasha Rashiē, Minister of Labor and Social Welfare, Mr. Nenad Rashiē and Chairman elected of Graçanica municipality, Mr. Bojan Stojanovic. Serb community in Kosovo has a very important value for a democratic Kosovo.The participation of this community in the last local elections is a clear expression of their awareness that only in this way they will take their destiny in their hands and become part of European integration processes.
In this context, we expressed our appreciation for the progress of the decentralization processes in Kosovo.
Calm and peaceful climate helps in the return of displaced persons of the Serb community, and their further integration in the local and central governmental institutions.
I reiterate the promise of the Albanian Government to contribute to the construction of houses for returnees or to building up social-cultural facilities in municipalities with a Serb majority”.
All the best

so now the greater-serbian snow ist the troublemaker for the "republic-of-hearts" ...

imagine how triste my life is, not even albanians can make me lough ...

maybe because i think all the time abaout why they didn´t use the greater-albanian-highway from i-don´t-care to pristina ???

at least the sultan of pristina could have sent some donkeys, couldn´t he ???

"As I said whether you recognize the independence or not if you support 1244 you have to recognize the presidency.
As to your claim of Kosovo as a province, I do not ever expect to change your opinion. However, Kosovo can function without your approval. UN membership is not a necessity, as far as preventing EU membership, that is merely a Serbian dream. The investment is too high to just leave it outside. Arrangements will be made so when Serbia steps through the doorway there will be an opening for Kosovo, or Serbia will never cross.
(pss, 24 December 2009 17:56) "

you still don't get it. Through 1244, Pristina's president can get recognized as president of the PROVINCE of Kosovo, NOT as the STATE of Kosovo.

Don't be so naive as to think your "Kosova" can function on its own ..... it is currently "functioning" because of massive Western aid .... cut off this aid and then we can see how long "Kosova" can continue to function. Just look at your sky high unemployement and crime rates.

And I can tell you the USA will soon be forced to cut down on its aid to Pristina given its own gigantic economic problems -- http://www.federalbudget.com/

(village-bey, 23 December 2009 18:52)

With what is the Albanian Government going to use for money to pay for housing returning refugees???? You guys really need to leave your isolation chambers and look at your surrounding!

"Sounds like someone has not been reading 1244 again. Kosovo had a duly elected President as set forth by elections organized by UNMIK. Then they declared independence, so even if you do not agree with Kosovo independence, you, as an avid 1244 supporter has to recognize the duly elected President, unless you think 1244 is not valid???
In your closing your failed to mention greetings from a real state in Western Europe that recognizes and supports Kosovo as independent.
(pss, 24 December 2009 05:39) "

Sure, Belgrade can always recognize the president of the Serbian province of Kosovo vide 1244.

Dear Tabalija and sj, I forgot to mention the money.
Albanian government stated that it would contribute with 400,000 Euros specifically for the Commune of Gracanica.
You should be happy not sour.

(robby, 24 December 2009 17:07)

Robby it is The Albanian Govt, Tirana, PM Berisha that donates that money to the Serbs in Kosova... calm down

And it is not the first time the Albanian Ministry of Culture together with the National Institute of the Culture Preservation... and the Albanian Orthodox Church back in 2004 offered to the Serbian Orthodox Church to rebuild the damaged churches of 2004 for free- which was promptly refused form SPC.

We Albanins never considered Serbs in Kosova as guests but as Kosovars just as others. Any issue or litigation that may rise are issues and litigations within a family- we just ask them not to cry to Blgd since Bld is not Kosova.


And

Merry Christmas...

but how could they keep the electricity on for the duration of the meeting?

Do be quite frank i'm not sure why President Sejdiu is bothering with another slav fake state... he should have invited Albania, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia we dont really need the Macedonians... not that we have the Albanian highway and ports.
(Nehat Krasniqi, 24 December 2009 10:41)

You might want to read up on the latest issues that came out of Copenhagen, then come back here and tell us all about the magnificent ports and highways in Albania.
I appreciate and understand the Albanians supporting their side, but when you make wild and unsubstantiated claims then I can’t take any of your comments seriously. If you don’t understand then here it is – the power base is changing and the US is not the same as it was in the 1990s, that why.

>who today entertained in Tirana a delegation...

Judenrate didnt help Nazis win and some Serb version wont help Albanian separatist win in Kosovo. Your provocation in both your comments is worthless. I look forward to seeing you and yours very much, as I'm sure you know.

"I understand you and some others have a warped understanding of 1244. There is no discussion that will change that fact.
It is not my Kosova, but I have no problem with you thinking I am from there.
As far as cutting off aid, it is true that at this stage it is taking a lot of help to try to undo the damage from the Milosevic regime, when you destroy all infrastructure and education, rebuilding cannot be done over night. But as much as you would like to see it happen the aid is not going to be cut off for quite some time. Countries making a commitment to support Kosovo in their independence did so with full knowledge that it will take years to overcome the damage.
Try to read more than the words in 1244 than the phrase "territorial integrity of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia". That is less than 0.1% of the text the other 99.9% details how to protect Kosovo from Serbian forces and building a democracy free from Serbian control.
As far as the economic collapse of the US that you keep hoping for, you saw the effect on the world that the bump earlier in the year caused, a full collapse and you think Serbia could survive?? So I would not be so quick to put that in my prayers at night if I were you. Before you say that Russia will take care of Serbia, oil is only valuable if there is someone to buy it.
(pss, 25 December 2009 02:57) "

With all due respects, the one with the wrapped understanding of 1244 is yourself.

The phrase in 1244 that you referred to is still valid and binding even if it is only 1 or 2 sentences.

Your precious USA was able to live the high life for a long time because it hoodwinked the entire world into thinking that its economic wealth is for real whereas all this time they were living on borrowed funds.

Don't you worry about Russia's oil business. They have no intention of selling to the US on credit. They already have an eager and more reliable buyer in the Chinese. And yes, China has learned its lesson and no longer buying US treasuries en masse. It is now buying up real resources in Africa and, of course, Russian and Iranian oil.

Do be quite frank i'm not sure why President Sejdiu is bothering with another slav fake state... he should have invited Albania, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia we dont really need the Macedonians... not that we have the Albanian highway and ports.

As far as the economic collapse of the US that you keep hoping for, you saw the effect on the world that the bump earlier in the year caused, a full collapse and you think Serbia could survive?? So I would not be so quick to put that in my prayers at night if I were you. Before you say that Russia will take care of Serbia, oil is only valuable if there is someone to buy it.

Do be quite frank i'm not sure why President Sejdiu is bothering with another slav fake state... he should have invited Albania, Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia we dont really need the Macedonians... not that we have the Albanian highway and ports.

You might want to read up on the latest issues that came out of Copenhagen, then come back here and tell us all about the magnificent ports and highways in Albania.
I appreciate and understand the Albanians supporting their side, but when you make wild and unsubstantiated claims then I can’t take any of your comments seriously. If you don’t understand then here it is – the power base is changing and the US is not the same as it was in the 1990s, that why.

Dear Tabalija and sj, I forgot to mention the money.
Albanian government stated that it would contribute with 400,000 Euros specifically for the Commune of Gracanica.
You should be happy not sour.

Its more commonly known as monopoly money; what’s the latest money exchange value of the Albanian Lek – 400,000 to the Euro.

>who today entertained in Tirana a delegation...

Judenrate didnt help Nazis win and some Serb version wont help Albanian separatist win in Kosovo. Your provocation in both your comments is worthless. I look forward to seeing you and yours very much, as I'm sure you know.

This is not the Albanian Gouvernment, its the Kosovarian Gouvernment. As long you don´t recognize that Kosovo is a multiethinc state, as long you will not get real international recognition.

"As I said whether you recognize the independence or not if you support 1244 you have to recognize the presidency.
As to your claim of Kosovo as a province, I do not ever expect to change your opinion. However, Kosovo can function without your approval. UN membership is not a necessity, as far as preventing EU membership, that is merely a Serbian dream. The investment is too high to just leave it outside. Arrangements will be made so when Serbia steps through the doorway there will be an opening for Kosovo, or Serbia will never cross.

you still don't get it. Through 1244, Pristina's president can get recognized as president of the PROVINCE of Kosovo, NOT as the STATE of Kosovo.

Don't be so naive as to think your "Kosova" can function on its own ..... it is currently "functioning" because of massive Western aid .... cut off this aid and then we can see how long "Kosova" can continue to function. Just look at your sky high unemployement and crime rates.

And I can tell you the USA will soon be forced to cut down on its aid to Pristina given its own gigantic economic problems -- http://www.federalbudget.com/

"I understand you and some others have a warped understanding of 1244. There is no discussion that will change that fact.
It is not my Kosova, but I have no problem with you thinking I am from there.
As far as cutting off aid, it is true that at this stage it is taking a lot of help to try to undo the damage from the Milosevic regime, when you destroy all infrastructure and education, rebuilding cannot be done over night. But as much as you would like to see it happen the aid is not going to be cut off for quite some time. Countries making a commitment to support Kosovo in their independence did so with full knowledge that it will take years to overcome the damage.

With all due respects, the one with the wrapped understanding of 1244 is yourself.

The phrase in 1244 that you referred to is still valid and binding even if it is only 1 or 2 sentences.

Your precious USA was able to live the high life for a long time because it hoodwinked the entire world into thinking that its economic wealth is for real whereas all this time they were living on borrowed funds.

Don't you worry about Russia's oil business. They have no intention of selling to the US on credit. They already have an eager and more reliable buyer in the Chinese. And yes, China has learned its lesson and no longer buying US treasuries en masse. It is now buying up real resources in Africa and, of course, Russian and Iranian oil.

I reiterate the promise of the Albanian Government to contribute to the construction of houses for returnees or to building up social-cultural facilities in municipalities with a Serb majority”.
All the best
