Team chief: Future talks must focus on north

What a joke are the Serbian polititians....and this guy. They want a special treatment for Serbs in northern Kosovo...without recognising Kosovo independence first. I will make his job easier. Same rights for Kosovo Serbs to those rights enjoyed by Albanians living in Presevo, Bujanovc and Medvegja.

What will happen to the serbs and others south of the Ibar if the albanians get upset, again? They are the real hostages here. Will the west talk about human rights but do nothing, again?

What do Presevo have to do with Kosovo? That area is not disputed in any way, Kosovo is. Is it simply because Albanians live there? Well, Albanians live in Brooklyn and Chicago too, are you going to ask DC to grant them independence there too? You Albanians are funny.

Well, the funniest here is you. Presheva has a lot in common with northern part
of Kosovo. First of all, N. Kosovo is populated by majority of Serbs and Valley is populated by majority of Albanians.

That part can easily become disputed same as N. Kosovo. But the real question is,
how would Belgrade act if Albanians would put barricades, burn border points etc?

You really think Serbs would let that thing go?

This only means that Jermic is getting ready to abuse his UN position for national serb publicity. I hope the UN will stop this man.

Jeremic was the center stage when he was FM but with DS not part of the govt, his services will be focused in the UN. I do not think you will see him fighting for success of the ruling SNS and the SPS. As a matter of fact it would be more advantageous for him politically to allow the loss of Kosovo happen on their watch.
His position at the UN does not give him any more advantage. He does get to meet with a lot of people but he will be in a position where others are going to want to advance their home agenda's. When he flew to different countries he would have several hours or even days to discuss Kosovo among other things. Now he will have a few minutes to discuss with 193 countries about concerns they have, not much time to get around to Kosovo, and I doubt he will have the brass to monopolize the GA forum for only Serbia's causes. That would probably create more negative than positive reactions. He does not have anything to offer in a quid pro, quo situation.

But what is changed lately ? i have always read about Serbia that want all Kosovo back ..now only the Northern part ?

During WW2 there was a majority serb population in Kosovo. Due to hight birth rates albs are now majority.

OH WOW, all of sudden is due to high birth rate and not everybody coming during Tito's era from Albania!?
Make up your mind , which is , which?

What do Presevo have to do with Kosovo? That area is not disputed in any way, Kosovo is. Is it simply because Albanians live there? Well, Albanians live in Brooklyn and Chicago too, are you going to ask DC to grant them independence there too? You Albanians are funny.

“They cannot negotiate the status because the status of Kosovo is solved as far as they are concerned and it is an independent state for them

Reality and facts on the ground are mentioned above.




and on the other hand the status of Kosovo is solved for us and it is an inalienable part of the Republic of Serbia,” the team head pointed out.


The wet dream is above.

“The job will not be simple because (Kosovo PM) Hashim Thaci and his team in Priština do not want to have a dialogue with Belgrade about, as they say, political issues and they are trying to create a dialogue between Priština and northern Kosovo Serb representatives,” he said and added that Priština would fail in the attempt to do so.

I don't see what the problem is here. If Thaci wants to talk to the northern Kosovo Serb representatives, he is then officially recognizing the legitimacy and legality of "parallel institutions", which is perfectly fine with me. What's more, these institutions have successfully defended themselves against repeated aggression from Pristina so they completely deserve to be part of the negotiating team - even more than Belgrade which looks to be selling them out. Let Thaci come begging for an agreement with the four mayors of northern Kosovo! Let's hear him offer all sorts of "generous" plans that give them power and embarass him in the eyes of his fellow Albanian nationalists. He's got nothing to offer but what the US and the EU tell him to offer, and that is complete autonomy, which is what they have right now :)

One reason albanians don't put up barricades in Presevo is because they don't have to. They are not fighting for their rights and their lives, like serbs are in Kosovo. Besides, why don't you mention norhtern Epirus in south Albania? Perhaps the greeks there would like to set up barricades as well. Kosovo was illegaly stolen from Serbia. It belongs to Serbia just as Presevo does. During WW2 there was a majority serb population in Kosovo. Due to hight birth rates albs are now majority. And you think that fact alons entitles albanians to this terriory? In Malmoe Sweden there will be a muslim majority in 10-15 years. Will that part of Sweden then belong to muslims or the swedes? Just look at albanian history in Kosovo as well as Albania and you will realize that you don't have any history there. You came with the turks. You came to a territory already inhabited by slavic people. You were welcomed, instead of being thankful you expelled the slavs and claim tha land as your own.

Not sure what the dispute is about. We're told that Albanians in Preshevo are living in paradise as the rest of Serbia so by having Kosovo Serbs have the same rights as Albanians in Serbia means that Kosovo Serbs would be living in paradise. This is not a discussion about dependence or independence.

"Disputed status" for whom ? Almost everything has a disputed status for somebody... not sure what your point is ?

chut EA,don"t tell serbs that ,as always,they are working for us! the more they 3work3 for mitrovica,the more presheva valley issue will be easy to solve for us with the same standart!and presheva is much more important to us for many reason!So just let them do the job!
To serbs,are you so sure that albanians in presheva valley do not want to join us???you need a military base there to be sure of it? But just not forget that in kosovo to you sended thousand and thousand soldiers...in vain!

You really think Serbs would let that thing go?
