U.S. Senator and one of the Democrats' presidential favorites Hillary Clinton has spoken out over the Kosovo crisis. Clinton said that it was unlikely the Troika-led talks would lead to a compromise, and that the U.S. government should be ready to recognize a Kosovo declaration of independence. Hillary Clinton to back Kosovo independence “The U.S.-EU-Russia Troika will strive to reach a negotiated solution for Kosovo’s future status in order to submit their report to the UN and the world, but given Russia’s stance, it will be hard to come to any agreement,“ said Clinton in Washington. “Further postponements are undesirable. The process that began too late because of the Bush administration’s neglect during his first term in office has been exhausted,“ said the senator. “Bearing in mind that Russia is threatening to use its veto for any proposal brought before the Security Council, we must be ready to resolutely support the will of the vast majority of Kosovo people,“ she said. “In the event of Pristina declaring independence, I will firmly urge the U.S. to recognize that country and I call on the EU to do likewise,“ concluded Clinton.

Bure baruta pred eksplozijom: Počinje veliki rat?

Bliski istok, zbog promene ravnoteže snaga i dubokih kriza, pre svega palestinsko-izraelske, može se smatrati buretom baruta i ima potencijal da dovede ne samo do regionalnog sukoba, već i do globalnog konflikta.
