Let's say albania was bigger in 1878. So what, Rome includet albania 2000 years ago. Why shouldn't albania belong to Italy then? And what about noth america. Didn't it belong to the indians? Are you in favour of returning that to the natives as well? You take one period in history and make it the one and only truth. You can ask for anything you want, the question is: will you get it without a war?

This can also be applied to Serbia's arguments over Kosova. You get the point?

These were Albanian Vilayets under Ottoman Empire which had Albanian majority , since then there have been ethnographic changes due to ethnic cleansing and wars. But still do you think it`s a coincidence that 3 mln albanians live in Albania but another 3 mln live outside in the neighboring countries (count me any other nations which has a similar case) . It`s not like Macedonia Serbia or Montenegro (ex-yugoslavia) have a higher life standard than Albania so the "migration" theory that has been set up by those countries is just a lie to
cover up the unfairness done to the Albanians in the beginning of the 20th century. An independent Albania of 1878 kind has never existed and we all know why, still Albanians just ask what has belonged to them since ever.

what are you on about MikeC? Albania didn't even exist in 1878, it was part of the Ottoman Empire. there may have been Albanain people or villayets containing Albanians in them, but a state separate from another called Albania did not exist

??? Actually not everybody thinks in that primitive way that you obviously do. If I recommend a comment its because I agree with it, regardless of whether I usually agree with the poster.

It could well be that people generally agree with my comment. Now if you want to dispute what I wrote then go ahead, but I suspect that you have no substance and that your type of comments are more suitable to youtube...

"50 people protesting for Canada to become greater Canada would not be newsworthy, but if you have been paying attention to the balkans for the past 100 years you will know that this is a serious matter."
(???, 23 October 2012 17:02)

You mean like the world should better have payed more attention some years ago when first only a few Serbs started to promote their 'Greater Serbia' project, and it escalated into the Balkan war?

???

pre 11 godina

Well a protest of less than 50 people is hardly newsworthy really...

In my experience most people in Albania have more pressing issues than the status of Kosovo - with the exception of those with family in Kosovo or in areas close to the border.

Recommend (+12) Poor comment (-3)

Those +12 comes only from Albo trolls who support scum like you and danilo. 50 people protesting for Canada to become greater Canada would not be newsworthy, but if you have been paying attention to the balkans for the past 100 years you will know that this is a serious matter. Just look at the other article and see all the albo trolls calling for a greater albania and tell us that is not newsworthy.

Well, I hope the visit goes well. I'm sure there'll be some back and forth over Kosovo, but then it would be nice if the parties focus at least part of their time on more productive topics.

As for the Red and Black...oh well. Every country has to deal with that sort.

PS: Common b92, get at least the name of the 2 decade long dictator, it is Sali, no j in there.

The nationalists are the most corrupt anyway. I wouldn't put it past them to make the Serb fm actually have some sort of credibility.

All 9 of them?

Albania is having a really slow news month.

Most likely public sector losers who get the day of on net tax payers expense.

If the Balkans ever want to be productive and wealthy, they should stop supporting parasites through guns and taxes.

Jeff,
Please, do not confuse 20-30 young people with geo-politics. Of course in every country the extremists do find the way to manifest their opinion. For instance you have those who want Great Serbia, Great Bulgaria, Great Greece, Great Albania, great this and great that. So, what does it mean? The general public opinion in Albania tends not so much in favor of a greater Albania-as this would not solve our problems- but rather to encourage the development and prosperity of Kosovo. So please wake up, and start to look the things as they are in the reality. Let me ask you a question: do you really believe that the politicians in KS and ALB would agree to merge the two countries?? If your answer is yes, well let me tell you that there are no politicians who would give up their power. and merging the two countries is not more than that.

So no more pretending. It's a Greater Albania that is at the end of all this. If there is one country in the world less deserving, (Serbia excluded), please let me know.
