KFOR stops clashes in northern Kosovo

Serbs want nothing to do with Albanians, just like the Albanians wanted nothing to do with Serbs. Why is that hard to understand? Let people live in peace, and stop trying to control someone who opposes you. I say, let the Serbs have their elections, and the albanians theirs. Obviously, multi-ethnicity in this region will not work, and trying to impose it is a recipe for disaster.

The Albanians moved towards the bridge later, where local Serbs were gathering.

Stones and rocks started flying from each side shortly after. There are still several thousand Serbs and Albanians on each side of the bridge.


ok, lets get this tory straight. if local serbs north of ibar were concentrating on voting for mickey mouse, why worry who is protesting south of ibar, knowing that KFOR will not allow any violence?
I assume voting is /was not so important, rather inciting violence and an incident is more important to serbs,right???

The hypocrisy of the Kalbs is breathtaking.

B92 forgat to mention that albanians were flying only albanian flags.
Good job..!
One more chip for Serbia to take to ICJ.

Why are Albanian extremists protesting the happenings in an area that have not, and will not, control? I assume after they threw rocks at Serbs voting in northern Kosovo they also threw rocks at Czechs voting in Prague too? So stupid.

"President of the Serbian State Election Commission Veljko Odalović said that the protests aim to put pressure on the voters and international community in order to stop the voting. "

Who are you kidding sir? The intimidation is done straight from Serbias hands,and for every illegality and discrimination Serbia chooses, they will get burned politicly diplomaticly and moraly too. We will see till the end of the day ;)

Toke,

if the aggression is coming from one side only, then what are Albanians doing at this location throwing rocks, or throwing rocks at displaced persons, or firing rifles?

another milestone to show that the North will never ever fall in the grabby tentacles of the Kosovo Albanians. And another indicator that the north will be split off. You had the majority south and blackmailed your independence now let those people in the North in peace, they want nothing to do with you, give it up already.

I'm sure you were there Kosovo USA, and like most of your posts, your hands on expertise is an invaluable service for my amusement.

What is so hard to understand? Serbs voted in their local Serbian elections and then went to protect their physical rights against invading invading albanian trolls which came from underneath the bridge. Like Billy's Goats Gruff....trolls live under bridges and needed to be knocked off like a rented mule. Harmless fun!

Serbia will be responsible for this mess, this is a sign that pandora box is being opened and serbs be ready to face the consequences. You've just violated the sovereignty of an independent country. Planing military invasion anytime soon?. Hope it doesn't come to another operation "Allied Force". Some people never learn from mistakes do they?. Have a nice day from a strong supporter of independent Kosovo. Justice will prevail.

I can just see next weeks report from the Feith titled - "Progress in Kosovo". However, the truth eventually surfaces and if you ask me, it seems this "Kosova" plan is beginning to destabilise the region. Returnee's attacked, graves desecrated (continuation), power cuts, vandalism of mobile phone infrastructure and we are even getting weapons transfered to FYROM. It won't be long before this gets out of hand. This is what happens when power is handed over to incompetent criminals/terrorists.

These demonstrations should have been organised by non UÇK and they should have taken place in Prishtina, outside Thaçi's office.

Further evidence, if any were needed, of the success of the internationals way of handling Kosovo...

The irony in all of this is that roles have been reversed. In the 90's Albanians were holding elections, Serbs decreed them as illegal, but did not stop them.

And we all know what happened in the end.

EULEX searched a minister and detained some friends of Thaci. Now he need urgent another battlefield.
It´s not a surprise.

You are so off the mark, dalmatinac. You are obviously not Serbian, so how would you know what the Serbs believe or want?

Just another example that there will never be peace in Kosovo. Nothing stolen has given any good to anyone. Kosovo is a failing method, which after 2 years still struggles to be recognized as a world member, hopefully this will have no impact on relations between EU and the rest of the Balkans.

"KFOR stops clashes in northern Kosovo"

I hope they also catch the vote intimidators, the thiefs and the terrorists sponsoring todays unbelievable degradation of Kosovo's "king David" voting.

The Kosovo Albanians might as well leave it all. I mean come on, EVERYTHING go against them the last 2 years. ICJ is coming up, Kosovo is full of corrupt politicians and leaders that dont give a damn about the people, criminality is boiling over, about 90% of Kfor soldiers, Eulex personell and Unmik personell is against independence (ask them yourself), they have zero control in the 30% of the northern part and also in 5-10% in the southern different parts etc etc. They are stuck there because nomatter what, they will never ever be a part of EU. Also, their politicians are fooling them that they will have visas in the future. HEY, Europe are sending back about 200 Albanians voluntarily AND forcefully every month !! Cant you see with your eyes or maybe you dont want to see.

I think Serbia is doing very well disturbing the peace in Kosovo. There is a way forward. EULEX and Kosovo/a's authorities should try different way how to establish the full authority in Kosovo/a. First Sealing Kosovo/a's borders with Serbia, controlling all movements of how is coming in and leaving Kosovo/a that includes travelling documents, have the non-Kosovo/a's residents have premission to be entering in Kosovo/a have and for Kosovo'a residents they must have Kosovo/a's travel document to be able to come in and out of Kosovo/a. That is to start with.

KFOR didnt do much, actually they came late, it was Kosovo Police who stopped the Albanian protestors while EULEX officers as usual didnt dare to stopp the Serbian protestors until they approched KP who responded by using tear gas and ROSU operatives started arriving then the Serbian protestors started running back to their side. All kudos to KP officers who acted professional.

"I can just see next weeks report from the Feith titled - "Progress in Kosovo". (Zoran)

-- Haha yes. I really wonder if this is part of the "considerable progress" made. Because throwing rocks and causing a riot is certainly a sure fire way for those pesky Serbs to become citizens of Europe's Youngest Democracy.

How long does it take to 'concentrate' on voting Kosova USA? I doubt more than 5 minutes.

The Albanians are behaving as hypocrites here. In the 1990s before the war broke out, the Albanians set up parallel institutions to counter the Yugoslav ones but Slobo to his credit just simply ignored them. When that didn't work, the KLA fascists started shooting postal workers, forestry officials, policemen and loyal Yugoslav citizens. Now when it seems that the Serbs are excersising their democratic rights, the Albanians throw a big hissy fit and resort to violence when things dont go their way.

KFOR better think twice about scaling down their numbers. When the verdict from the ICJ is revealed in the summer, there will be alot of angry Albanians.

Wow, EA, you really want to build and live in a prison like the one you are suggesting. How about Albanians mind their own business on their territories, and the Serbs take care of their territories? Wouldn't that be really democratic, and put and end to some this harmful nationalistic sewage? Why would Albanians want to control the Serbs and their land, anyway?

lids: "that albanians were flying only albanian flags". Never heard RTS all these years? Kosova is a part of Albania, and all our efforts are directed to a finall end: unification with Albania.

"Southern Kosovska Mitrovica Municipal President Avdi Kastrati said that the elections in the northern part of the city were "illegal""

Hypocrite

Yes-we hear you wan`t part of the moon too,Brooklyn and parts of Jersey Shores.
Dream on,we know you`re good for nothing else.

Is there a wrong kind of democracy? It rather depends on what kind of hypocrite one is...

next kosovo elections,why not have election in presheva valley too,just as serbs in north mitrovica?

"KFOR stops clashes in northern Kosovo"

Or EULEX? Now I'm confused!

You are very right Sir.
But the international community, (IC) is ready for the rage of the Albanians when ICJ verdict comes. You bet Sir. 1. Serbia and the IC have as you might know a signed letter of understanding to take soldiers through Serbia very quickly from Bosnia and Europe. 2. Bondsteel are ready with attack helicopters against the Albanians if they riot like in 2004. (There are a standing order in Kfor from May 2004 that they will engage with lethal fire against those who commit arson and are rioting.) 3. If the Albanians start riot again, it will show the world that ICJ was right. 4. Greece and Macedonia has quite an amount of Nato soldiers ready to respond.
