KFOR won't let food, medical supplies through at Jarinje

"Drivers said they were told that American soldiers "had an order" to stop vehicles carrying goods."

I heard in Somalia, militant Islamists do the same: Blocking food transports, because they have an order from their leader.

Poor Serbians, always the victim! The Serbs should leave earth because everyone is against them!

Well KFOR, thats a crime against humanity and may even amount to Genocide should it cause large numbers of deaths. Mr Tadic, Mr Nikolic, Mr Putin and Mr Ki-Moon, please save these people!

Stoping food and medical items,won't broke Serbians,for evryone to remembar;78 days and nights,19 the strongest country did NOT broke Serbs,olso years of words sancion and etc..etc .So ,oviously this temporary stupidnest won't make big diference,to strong Serbian people !

That's only the Thaci way of ethnic cleansing - much more humanitarian than the Milosevic way, isn't it?

@ Kosovac

You are a joker.

Libia is almost a half year living under war situation and you (Serbia) was brought down in less than 3 months.

No recognizing of Kosova's stamp, no food for you.

Behave ;o))

Kosovo has set up an embargo for Serbian goods because Serbia doesnt allow import of Kosovar goods. That is the reason why no Serbian goods are allowed to Kosovo. Why dont the K-Serbs use the same goods as Albanians?
Why do K-Serbs goods have to come at all costs from Serbia?
(Poster, 2 August 2011 13:51)

They do allow "Kosovar" goods. They just need to use the correct stamps, not the ones that say "Republic of Kosova, Planet of Mars". They will only accept stamps of real states, or the one from the occupied province.

Freedom, why don't you preach what your name implies? The Serbs in the north of Kosovo do not want to live under the authority of Pristina, just as the Albanians did not want to live under the authority of Belgrade. Where is the freedom then? Do you feel that it's humane to try and starve people, and deny them medical supplies because of politics? I do not understand that way of thinking, whether it be Kosovo, Iran, Libya, anywhere. Why should innocent people pay the price of failed diplomacy? If this form of politics continues, nothing will be solved, and only breeds hatred and desire for revenge. There will never be peace, Freedom, in Kosovo if both sides in the conflict are not satisfied. Kosovo will remain a land of uncertainty, hatred, and violence. Is that the kind of place you want to raise your children, or anyone's children, in? Think long and wisely about your comments before you post, human lives are at stake.

Poor Serbians, always the victim! The Serbs should leave earth because everyone is against them!

Maybe you would actually like that wouldn't you? Wish them away and if that doesnt work, you can always fall back on the more unconventional methods... beat, kill, burn, starve, drive them out.

Likewise, Serbia doesn't allow food, medical supplies and fuel coming from Koosova to Albanians in Presevo Valley.
It's even worse, Serbia doesn't allow passenger cars coming from Kosova, that is if they have Kosova's plates.
(miri, 2 August 2011 15:19)

Poor, ignorant miri. Albanians in Presevo are serbian citizens. They have full access to food and medical supplies. But then I doubt you can tell the difference between apples and oranges.

"KFOR won't let food, medical supplies through at Jarinje".. when you say 'food, medical supplies' to us Albanians in Kosova means weapons, drugs and smuggled goods!

Kosovo has set up an embargo for Serbian goods because Serbia doesnt allow import of Kosovar goods. That is the reason why no Serbian goods are allowed to Kosovo. Why dont the K-Serbs use the same goods as Albanians?
Why do K-Serbs goods have to come at all costs from Serbia?

Because serbia does recognize Kosovo as an independent Albanian state, Poster. The Serbs do not recognize Pristina's customs stamp. Pristina is attempting to force Serbia to accept this stamp, and unfortunately innocent people, as always, are caught in the middle of politics. Do you understand this simple explanation?

What sort of honour is left in the military? Shame on KFOR, Denying civilians food and medicines? Is the first mandate for KFOR supposed to be the protection of life for all people in Kosovo? Wasnt this the reason for their deployment under 1244? Wasnt the same denial of Human Rights that apparently led to the initial deployment of KFOR against Serbia?

I am sure it is with great interest that those in a legal standing within the UN and EU are watching closely to see the breaking of the European Convention on Human Rights and the International Convention regarding Human Rights by KFOR troops on a daily basis within Kosovo... the right to life, right to freedom of movement to name but two currently being denied to the Serbian people of Northern Kosovo.....maybe the German Officer in charge of KFOR needs to study these articles a bit more closely before continuing with allowing the US troops to turn away medical aid and food...

Are we now so far removed from reality that this is the way to bring about a solution in Kosovo? By inhumane acts of starvation and denial of medical assistance to the frail and injured?

The tactics used by Pristina in deploying ROSU to forcefully control Serbian peoples access to Serbia are in themselves oppressive, after all, still a large number of countries do not recognise an independent Kosovo and the fact that the rights of the Serbian minority are far from respected nor protected, Serbian people in Kosovo still rely on access to their Mother country for most things, by denying them the rights of freedom of movement into and out of Serbia is denying them access to the country they regard as thier protector and homeland (might I point out the double standards here as freedom of access is enjoyed by Kosovars into Albania at Albania Borders)

When did NATO, EULEX and the EU become a tool to assist Mr Thaci and his Government to force Pristina rule on a large amount of people who clearly do not want it and who quite frankly were forgotten about in the New Kosovo that was declared, is this what Human Rights now means in the Balkans? Are these actions contained within the mandate of KFOR or the mandate of EULEX or like usual are they down to the biased interpretations by whoever is currently in charge of the mission?

Serbian people in Northern Kosovo will do what most opprressed minorities do when they are forced against a wall , they will resist...maybe the Kosovars can see that this type of oppression from their Govt is what led to the International community intervention back in 1999....'Put a beggar on horseback and he will ride straight to hell' is a quote which jumps to mind in this regard...we in the west put Thaci in Govt and he is certainly doing a great job of destroying the chances of compromise with his Serbian neighbours....

"Drivers said they were told that American soldiers "had an order" to stop vehicles carrying goods"

Only McDonalds, KFC and 1980s porno allowed through then?

Poor Serbians, always the victim! The Serbs should leave earth because everyone is against them!
Ardian

Yes, they should go to the same planet that you albanians are from.

Likewise, Serbia doesn't allow food, medical supplies and fuel coming from Koosova to Albanians in Presevo Valley.
It's even worse, Serbia doesn't allow passenger cars coming from Kosova, that is if they have Kosova's plates.

NWO in action! Get out of Serbia occuipers!

What further proof do you need that the kosovo albanians and their allies hate the kosovo serbs and prefer to treat them like trash and sweep them under the carpet? Who would have thought after 1989 that american soldiers would be involved in ethnic cleansing and persecuting civilians simply because of who they are. The onus is on Pristina to protect and respect the minorities (as is deemed standard in civilized Europe) but they have singularly failed to do so. The only reason there are any serbs, roma of others left south of the ibar is solely for public relations so they and their allies can caim the Kosovo zoo is 'multi ethnic' and western intervention is a success.

Bresvik has clearly shown that western europe can't practice what it preaches. The far right and fascists are on the rise. Jews have been leaving Sweden (where anything goes), something that has been effectively ignored in Europe and the swedish government wring their hands and say they can't do anything. Liberals just hope and pray doing nothing whilst the fascists take action. There is no leadership to be seen from these 'professionals'.

NATO now says it will bring in a reserve force. What do the non-recognizing EU states that are members of NATO think of NATO being used to persecute, threaten and ultimately ethnically cleanse the remaining non-albanians from Kosovo? We all know what will happen south of the ibar if the monsters in Pristina doesn't ultimately get control of the north.

It goes to show the Europeans that NATO is behaving simply an arm of US foreign policy regardless of the EU yet the americans want european troops to do their dirty work too. And some people still declare that NATO is a force for freedom. One more nail...

Guadhafi does not want to negotiate, Milosevic was forced to the negotiating table by Yelstin through Cheromydin, Guadafi as the full support of Russia.

The Joke is on you, no negotiation with Serbia and no recognized Albanian state.

Time to stop messing about,the way to get that food and medical items to the Serbs is to steamroller it in LITERALY,and steamroller over anyone who is stupid enough to get in the way.

Just one sentence for you, from the heart. Long live Taliban!!!

Experience is talking! KFOR never stopped these supplies to the albanians...No one is better at this business than you! I like your comment|!

(Milan, 2 August 2011 17:57)

UNMIK has repeatedly assured that Kosovo's customs stamps are in line with 1244 and CEFTA provisions. So Serbia either accepts them or suffers the consequences of the reciprocal actions by Kosovo

Yes the bombing of Libya is taking much longer than the bombing of FR Yugoslavia, however there is a big difference. NATO is trying to bring down Gaddafi's regime, whereas back in 1999 they wanted the Yugoslav police and army to leave Kosovo. NATO was not asking for Milosevic's regime to come down and leave the country etc. His regime survived for more than a year after the bombing had ended.

The ignorance on both sides of the extremist will allow hatred to live on forever. I read b92 articles very often and its sad to see how some of you cant see farther then your feet. Ethnic cleansing in northern kosovo? Really? Why cant EULEX, UN, KFOR and the world see what serbs see? Any Idea why? Try opening your mind and reading something that is not completely biased.Stop living under a rock, learn how to live peacefully, and maybe just maybe this wont be the next Israel - Palestine. Then again, I'll just get a hundred responses on how kosovo committed genocide and killed 250,000 serbs.

At the end of day just remember this. Politicans only gain from this type of hatred, while the average joe struggles, and this happens on the both sides. Tadic and Thaci are sitting back and enjoying its citizens struggle.

Well KFOR, thats a crime against humanity and may even amount to Genocide should it cause large numbers of deaths. Mr Tadic, Mr Nikolic, Mr Putin and Mr Ki-Moon, please save these people!

Time for a million man march to Kosovo. They threw down the gauntlet with these shenanigans. We come in peace but we will not be denied our rights in kosovo any longer. The time for meetings is over, action of the peaceful kind is needed.
