Zannier to meet with "parallel" Serb officials

Impose what? Something which doesn't have the blessing of UNSC.

Nothing can be imposed which contradicts Res. 1244. He can talk all he likes but he cannot break the law.

I'd like to see him try it.

Probably it will be some kind of RS in the north.

In other words...might makes right. Could this get any uglier?

“That’s why there is no legal basis for these elections. They won’t be recognized, but I need to talk to those representatives," he [Zannier] explained.


The idea of independent and sovereign and not partitioned Kosovo roots, among the so-called international community, on the myth of selfgovernment and democratic procedures that lead to a multiethnic society where Albanians and Serbs walk hand in hand towards the sun. The reality of the myth, in the local context, showed a different picture, and no one ethnic Albanian, for instance and as far as I know, spent a word about the pogrom of March 2004.

On the other hand there is the international law that says that Kosovo is a province of Serbia. But its implementation, in the local context, faces the very basic and dramatic problem of consensus (K-Albanians simply do not want to be in Serbia).

So, I am more and more sure that Lambertone was nominated to implement a pragmatical solution with K-Albanians staying with K-Albanians in some areas and K-Serbs with K-Serbs in other areas (and his italianity surely helps in handling "pragmatically" both with the mythology of the independent and united Kosovo - to which a person like the Dutch Peter Feith, for instance, seems still subjugated - and with the international Law). In this framework the councils elected in the Serbs populated areas are necessary interlocutors.

Thank you, Mr. Zannier for effectively recognizing the legitimacy of the Serb Assembly. The sooner we put aside personal ideals and recognize practical realities, the sooner Kosovo can move forward.

Yes Adrian, the Serb Assembly does appear to be setting itself up as an RS in Kosovo. But we can't forget the enclaves in the center and the south. They have to cooperate with Pristina on some level simply due to their geographic locations (Strpce expecially), but as long as these sectors are allowed to manage their affairs by themelves or in conjunction with BG, we may see a frozen conflict that will settle into a de facto reality over the coming years.

“That’s why there is no legal basis for these elections. They won’t be recognized, but I need to talk to those representatives," he [Zannier] explained.




Ohh come on Zannier!! meeting the Serb representatives elected in the last election is a "proof" of your recognition to them.

Please do your "job" as mandated by the UNSC and not serving the interest of law breakers like Bush
