... the deployment of Kosovo Customs at the crossing between Serbia and Kosovo to collect customs' taxes as decided by UNMIK in August of 1999. How can resistance against a UNMIK decision be legitimate ?!

I do not want to enter a a philosophical debate about legality and legitimacy. Anyway, to implement the decision in question Pristina and Belgrade need to sit at the negotiation table and find to an agreement how to do it. The regime in Pristina departed from its obligation to find common grounds and provoked trouble. Therefore all involved have to return to the status ante and take up negotiations again. As long as they negotiate, EULEX has to run the show at the checkpoints - if necessary supported by KFOR. Do I have to quote Obama´s statement in terms of how in general (!) to settle disputes when he addressed Palestinians and Israelis recently? Do not bring up that UN WSCR 1244 is not applicable for the latter dispute - he explicitly mentioned that his statement would apply in the most general sense.
Always a pleasure hearing from U ;-)) !
