K. Albanian minister: I received promises

In an interview for Radio Television of Kosovo, Hiseni said that recognitions will soon start and that he had received promises of that from representatives of different countries.

b92

The usual waffle by hiseni.How many times in the past have we seen the same statements?

The truth is the battle lines
between Serbs & Albanians over the status issue have already been established.
Countries which have refused to recogmise the illegal UDI will not do so in future.This is why Hiseni has returned from his talks empty handed.

Haseni's pseudo-posturing apart, the only way out of the present stalemate is the negotiating table.Unless the status of the "unsustainable statelet" is resolved it may well trigger the next conflict in the balkans.

Hey Skender, did they also promise you the Earth, sun, moon and stars? :))

Throw out the terrorist KLA in Pristina, replace them with educated Albanian representatives, and get back to the negotiating table, Mr. Hiseni. There can be winners on both sides, and that being the citizens that actually live in Kosovo, and not just a group of thugs and murderers that the CIA had on their terrorist list before they exploited them. I know promises and deals were made, but it is time for the US to break them, and get rid of that filth in Pristina.

Dear Mr Hyseni

As Prime Minister of Bongo Bongo, I promise to recognise the republic of Kosova.

Yours faithfully

I M Nuts
Prime Minister Bongo Bongo

-and perhaps those that have recognised will withdraw their recognition after reading the advisory ruling. There can be no peace without a just settlement and terrorists such as those previously in the KLA now making demands will never bring peace.

"Many countries are analyzing the opinion of the International Court of Justice before making a decision on Kosovo's recognition,“ said Hiseni.

Many countries already have analyzed the ICJ opinion and found out.... that there's no reason at all in it to change their stance, everything will stay the same.

We're supposed to believe that nations which have already given their word to Serbia AND have their own internal reasons for preventing the establishment of a seperatist precedent, have changed their opinon because of a non-binding verdict from a court that no UN member is bound by? At a time when the West is no longer the superpower bloc and cant exert the pressure they could in the 90s? NATO/KFOR wouldnt be leaving KiM if Hyseni was telling the truth.

Hysterical Skender has a tendency of getting all excited about something before it happens. How about instead of constantly saying what "might" happen, how about say something *after* it happens?

Baghdad Bob has got nothing on this guy.

Instead of "celebrating" non-recognitions are stating those coments, Hyseni, here, it would be better to wait for the UN GA. Don`t make the same mistake as Jeremic with useless talk. Wait for the deeds coming very soon.

...Throw out the terrorist KLA in Pristina, replace them with educated Albanian representatives, and get back to the negotiating table, Mr. Hiseni. ...

KLA have been in power for only 3 years.Since 1989 till 2007 LDK has been in power and you serbs didn't even consider talking with them,because you see albanians as second hand citizens.They were ready to negotiate for 17 years in the raw,and have given you several options to solve Kosova issue(from 3 republic option Ser,Kos,Montngr to indipendet Kosova open to Serbia and Albania) and you throw them out and humiliated them in front of albanians.
Now are telling us to change our leadership in order to start the negotiations.If you don't know the gonverment of Kosova today has been elected through free and fair elections,which in Serbia this is foreign word.
What is going to be next?Serbian to pick the Albanian team members?
I think you are living in 1989.Wake up Kosova is free from you and there is no need for Serbian help.The only way out for Serbia is to accept authonomy of North,or exchange territory North Mitrovica with Preshevo Velley,if they want real negotiations.Otherwise,continue to fight a long lost battle and spent the money and energy there.

"Now are telling us to change our leadership in order to start the negotiations.If you don't know the gonverment of Kosova today has been elected through free and fair elections,which in Serbia this is foreign word."

Which makes it even worse. Kosovo Albanians voting for former KLA "war heroes" instead of honourable civil politicians to be their leaders.

Serbia got rid of politicians from the past forming their government, fortunately. Though it looks like a lot of Serbs want to have their 'great' old leaders (or people with similar attitude and ideas) back.

Come on lets be fair and at least give the K. Albanians a chance after all many governments are on summer break right now. Lets see what happens come september

RE:

Albanian minister: I received promises

Sounds like former English foreign minister Neville Chamberlain holding up a worthless piece of paper from Hitler guaranteeing 'peace in out time" who already at that point in time moved into Austria and Czechoslovakia without firing a shot.

Meanwhile, France and Britain shamefully let their ally Czechoslavia be swallowed up by the Nazi's and Hungarians.

Regardless of how many recognitions Kosovo and Hyseni receive, the security council can still veto any resolution.

There is no "majic" number that some "Albanians" like to quote as there is nothing in the UN charter that says you are a country with 69-89-100-120 recognitions; none that I am aware of.

Kosovo will become less than Taiwan more than Abkazia, Northern Cyprus Kashmir,a rogue state.

Unbelievable, again Hiseni is making childish statements. How can someone say to Hiseni in nice way to shut up? He is not helping the cause. Awkwardly some moves that Jeremic made (like ICJ ruling) were more beneficial for Kosova.

He expressed his confidence that Kosovo and its allies will "win the political battle against Serbia and those who support it.“ According to him, this will happen at the United Nations General Assembly in the fall.
==================
So now everyone is waiting for GA ruling? I thought you guys said that after ICJ opinion recognitions will flood in. Now you're saying that everyone is waiting to analyze ICJ opinion and to see what UN will say. You do like to change your story from time to time.

Looks like Hyseni knows he is in grave danger of joining 60% of his fellow Kosovars at the job centre soon.

The truth is Mr. Hyseni that Kosovo will remain a frozen conflict coz it will never win an EU and UN membership.
You're MAMA USA and UK cannot convince everyone.

This man is useless and desperate. I can just imagine him running down the corridors of the United Nations Headquarters in New York trying to pester UN ambassadors and they're trying their best to ignore him. He desperately needs replacing with someone who can do the required job. Hyseni is a joke!

"I received PROMESES"
So did and always will, many women in many ports around the world...

Did they each give him a box of chocolates and some roses and said "I'll call you" too?

Mirel,

"...Wake up Kosova is free from you and there is no need for Serbian help..."

Then stop buying serbian products (large wheat imports, building materials etc.). Your other neighbors will be happy to sell you their products for a mark up.

Freedom always has a price and debts go with it (no more SFRY loans to buy off albanian violence).

BTW, how much better was it for albanians under Enver Hoxa's regime than those in Kosovo? Seems like beggars also like to be choosers.

I don't particularly like Hyseni but at least this guy is not afraid to tell the truth; he's not lying about anything.There are promisses for new recognitions; just a question of weeks or months.
It is been over ten years now that serbian politicians hide the truth about Kosovo to its citizens.After every defeat they discover a new "briliant" idea to slow down more recognitions.What is their strategy now?No one knows, not even themselves.What surprises me more is that Serbia and serbians have always ignored the albanians in Kosovo as if they didn't exist.More surprising is that even at present they're doing the same thing,ignoring the albanians and the new reality of the present world.

Simpatiku Nul Points. Simpatiku No Points. Oh no, you don't get to do Eurovision!

Reading is not your forte is it? Since when does 'buying' = 'free'? You clearly did not understand my post. Whatever.

(Aleks, 12 August 2010 18:48)

Oh Yes. Humanitarian Serbia who gives those wheat products and building materials for free and do not get any money for that. How could we miss that? You are really believing the crap you're issued from emotional serb diaspora magazines.
The truth is that gradually those products are getting replaced.
In any case croatians and slovenians are buying all those companies in Serbia, so for shorter time than you can imagine there will be no serbian product made under serbian ownership.
As for beggars and choosers I would sugest you to read how Gasprom slaps the face of Tadic. That is the perfect example of your own. You must realize that in fact you do not have time and capacity to observe beggars and choosers elsewhere.
As for Kosovo prime minister Hyseni, many of his statements do not materialize, but at least the man has mature behaviour unlike childish Jeremic who changes his words every three days.

"Kosovo will become less than Taiwan"

2 points:

Only 22 countries recognize Taiwan.

No one outside of China and Taiwan wonder about the question "Is Taiwan a country"

Just a clarification on Skender Hiseni's name...His last name is "HYSENI"

Aleks
I only ironically said that. Of course buying is not free. However according to your previous comment it looked exactly like that. The last I checked Serbian budget collects at least 250 million euros yearly from the products it sells in Kosovo. She can as well stop selling which means that she will be without those millions.

You read what you wanted to read Simpatiku.

BTW, why should Serbs stop selling to Albanians? Why do albanians always come up with this when no one else has?

The real question should be "Why are albanians still buying from Serbs if they are all murderous as**oles etc.?" as we are often told? "We don't need no stinkin' serbs" say the hypocrites. No one is forcing them to buy anything, but they do because it is 'good value'.

The same is true for the crazy georgian nationalists. Sure, they can improve their economic links with the west but by far their biggest market is with their neighbor, Russia. Go figure.

Dreaming about supplanting your main market in the short to medium term is just that. Dreaming. 'Allies' aren't going to buy albanian products just because they are allies. There seems to be this confusion that political friends = economic favors.

BTW, do you know how much it costs for a western supermarket to promote products in the West, whether it be Montenegrin Vranac, Georgian Borjomi (sp?) mineral water etc? It can be a seriously expensive business regardless of how good the product is, success is by no means guaranteed.

Kosovo albanians are now 'free' to buy whatever and from whomever they want.

The irony here is that despite the daily threats (to non-albanians) and demands on Belgrade by Pristina, they still demand need normal relations with Belgrade because of their blackhole economy. Why should Belgrade do Pristina any economic favors when it behaves in such a threatening manner? Or should it do it to please Brussels or as 'war reparations'? What a joke.
They can pretend about autarky but it is just another fantasy.

Why do you think that Brussels and co are pushing so hard for Bosnian 'reform' (i.e. the effective abolishment of Dayton)? All the talk about human rights etc. is very nice but the Federation is also a blackhole that is continually on the brink of bankruptcy and Brussels and co are sick of being the ones asked to bail it out. Not to mention that where there are no jobs, all sorts of extremely undesirable people gather and do all sorts of undesirable things.

They don't want to be your financial guarantor forever. Simples.
