The Count of Kosova

pre 9 godina

It’s amusing when some provinces join the sanctions. And it was hard for me to sustain from setting my poison free against the region whose budget composes only 50% of it own narco-traffic. Yet I won’t comment it. Albanians are poor people from every point of view and they are compelled to do what they are told. If Germany is bowed what can we expect from the K-People ? My compassions and this time very seriously.

rote,
If only your command of the English language were competent, you would stand a better chance of making a coherent argument, yet still not good enough. I will leave it to you as a homework assignment to correct your deficiencies. The Albanians of Kosova and elsewhere have Besa, a word foreign to most slavs in meaning and concept. We support our frienda as they so nobly supported us in our hour of need. However, feel free to set your poison against us. Incidentally, you must read the latest statistics concerning the poverty level in Serbia and Russia. Lastly, if Kosova were still a province of Serbia, as you so often, but erroneously state, then why would Serbia allow Kosova to sanction Russia, even in principle? I will let you ruminate on this question, knowing it impossible for you to answer truthfully.
Mirupafshim,

The restoring of Russia's power by Vladimir Putin, the Prince of Russia. Leaders in the West enjoy referring to the " international community " when they discuss the force that opposes Russia, but in reality such solidarity does not exist. And as tensions between Moscow and the West intensify Russia will lean toward Asia to become its permanent geopolitical posture. Vladimir Putin will lead a 200 million man army, just look at the power he already has. Russia will survive not only the ongoing trade war, but also any larger conflict it may escalate into. A new era is upon us , positive direction for a new Serbia. We Eastern Orthodox Christians face East when we pray, we turn our backs to the evil West. The EU is led by Germany and the Roman Empire which will attempt for the third and last time to dominate Europe, but they are already defeated before they begin. Stay strong Serbia, avoid the EU deception, it is only a prymid where Germany's Roman Empire is on top ruling and the Balkan's Eastern Orthodoxy is on the bottom as slaves.

These sanctions will NOT hurt Russia, but they will hurt Northern Kosovo as that is the only part of Kosovo which does business with Russia.
(Ian, UK, 19 September 2014 10:29)

It wont. Not with Serbia not participating in the sanctions, there is still a way in as Thaci does not have any authority there. North Kosovo may even benefit from them.

On my calendar 2003 came after 2000??? I think he was referencing the complete withdrawal of Russian military by Putin in 2003, and not the event in 1999 where Russia had to retreat from the airport after their bold show of force, that was more like North Korea's attempts to show their military strength by launching "long" range missles to see them fizzle and fall into waters right off shore.

A small correction here... The Russians tried to help Serbia in 1999 with concrete actions and sent Russian troops to Pristina and confronted NATO soldiers there. But unfortunately (for Serbs) Vlad betrayed Serbia and withdrew those Russian troops from Kosovo in 2003 and he now supports Serbia with words and press statements.

Typical Albanian bravado making a big deal over something no one notices or cares about. It's hilarious how much you try to kiss America's ass for attention.
(Captian Obvious, 18 September 2014 18:05)

The only people kissing ass are Serbians of the very same people that bombed them into the stone ages on behalf of the Albanians! Serbia wants desperately to join the EU. No? Until you recognize the reality of this world you are destined to repeat the same mistakes over and over. How is it ass kissing for the Albanians to want to work together with the USA and Europe when it was with their help that Serbia was kicked out of Kosova? You have a perverse sense of "ass kissing". If someone rescued your child from drowning you would probably thank them and be very grateful to them. This is no different. The fact that you resent Kosovars being in agreement with the very same countries that bombed the daylighta out of Serbia only shows your jealousy.

It is good sign when we see people who few weeks ago wanted to exterminate all Albanians like Ari Gold,are moving several notches up to More than authonomy,less than independence.That's means that the less fanatic segments of Serbian society have accepted Kosovo as independent and next year are going to change the Constitution,according Vucic.

Btw,why do you use Albanian word Ari for Gold and not use Zlatko or whatever is the word in Serbian for Gold?

LOL! Great news. Now it is personal. Russia has a good excuse to veto anything related to helping "Kosova"* in the UN, especially its ambition to get a UN seat.

Lets not forget FYROM recognising Taiwan but then backtracking later as China closed its embassy and vetoed an extension of UNPREDEP.

This does nothing to hurt Russia but gives it an opportunity to punish those opposing it and demostrate the power that it has.

Let's get one thing straight, Kosova's sanctions will have zero impact on Russia in any way we look at it. This decision to sanction Russia has a bigger and broader picture here. We also disagree with Russia for their action in Ukraine, as does the world. Keep in mind Ukraine did not recognize Kosova, but we are not worried about their recognition seeing as we have more recognitions than we need already. We are simply supporting Ukraine because it is obvious Russia is wrong.

Serbia on the other hand is looking to join EU, and yet wants to maintain their brotherly love relationship with Russia. This is where Serbians are wrong, because WEST knows all too well how Serbia operates as well. They say one thing and they're doing something else. Well, not this time chump you're not going to have it your way (burger king) lunch has been over for you 15 years ago. It is a matter of time before things get rusty between Russia and Serbia while in the process of joining EU, with the pressure on Serbia to sanction Russia. Remember this Serbia, by the time you join EU your relations with Russia will be worse than ever, even if and when you do join EU, secretly Serbia will never be a true EU member behind closed doors. EU knows Serbia far too well to trust them and let them in the inner circle.

What needs to be stressed is the fact that "little tiny weak Kosova" IS doing something to Russia by sanctioning it. The point here isn't what materials are being banned or not purchased, but more so the BIG JUICY ALBANIAN MIDDLE FINGER BEING WAVED IN MOTHER RUSSIAS HAIRY UGLY FACE! hahaha!

What is Russia going to do? Precisely what they did during the Kosova war....NOTHING!

America is Kosova's greatest friend. When friends step up to the plate and support your goal of breaking free from tyranny as did America and most European nations for Kosova, obviously the least you can do is to be on the same page as them. Also, I don't blame Serbs for siding with the Russians, the Russians try to help but they are a bunch of losers! LOL! Kosovars got their own country, what did Serbs get?

Good job Kosova! USA has no greater friend in the Balkans and the USA recognizes that. Always do what is in YOUR interest and that is precisely what Kosovars have been doing.

While Kosovo sanctions will have zero bearing on the Russian economy its the message that matters. "Not everyone agrees with the expansionist policies of Russia". Nothing to smile about when someone whether big or small disagrees with you actions and imposes sanctions on you even though in the case they are insignificant. Great job Kosovo.

Moscow operates a diplomatic office in Kosovo as part of its embassy in Belgrade, RIA Novosti noted in its report
That statement brought a smile to my face.
Russia considers Kosovo to be a part of Serbia and they have 2 offices one in Serbia and one in Kosovo to cover what maybe 10 million people who 99% will never travel to Russia.
In the US there are 330 million people and they have 5 offices.

We joined the biggest powers in the world to say to you NO?

That's all don't worry you economy is not gonna shrink or damaged if you don't have any ties with Kosovo but your imports will be banned at the border and your business will be stopped to operate in Kosovo you will not be able to get visa to travel to RKS-you may try illegally but will be deported back and pay penalty..
Albania will be doing the same followed by Montenegro and Macedonia so we are small do t worry you keep smiling idiot.
But the way you behave is like we are at the bottom of your feet and you smiling that shows the real Russian head.

B92, Kosovo is recognized as independent by 108 UN Members. I think that deserves a mention no matter your position considering your 1-2 copy/paste paragraphs always appended to Kosovo-related news pieces. Thanks!

Ok but also tell that to clueless media that ignorantly refer to "kosovo" was a country without mentioning the fact that China, Russia, India, 5 EU provinces among others do not recognize your illusions of what you believe your status is. No UN membership either.

More than autonomy, less than independence.

When friends step up to the plate and support your goal of breaking free from tyranny as did America and most European nations for Kosova, obviously the least you can do is to be on the same page as them.

Typical Albanian bravado making a big deal over something no one notices or cares about. It's hilarious how much you try to kiss America's ass for attention.

The only people kissing ass are Serbians of the very same people that bombed them into the stone ages on behalf of the Albanians! Serbia wants desperately to join the EU. No? Until you recognize the reality of this world you are destined to repeat the same mistakes over and over. How is it ass kissing for the Albanians to want to work together with the USA and Europe when it was with their help that Serbia was kicked out of Kosova? You have a perverse sense of "ass kissing". If someone rescued your child from drowning you would probably thank them and be very grateful to them. This is no different. The fact that you resent Kosovars being in agreement with the very same countries that bombed the daylighta out of Serbia only shows your jealousy.

You're damn right that Kosovars appreciate the USA. There is no shame in that. Sorry Russians are losers and did absolutely nothing for your cause. That's not Kosovars fault.

Moscow operates a diplomatic office in Kosovo as part of its embassy in Belgrade, RIA Novosti noted in its report
That statement brought a smile to my face.
Russia considers Kosovo to be a part of Serbia and they have 2 offices one in Serbia and one in Kosovo to cover what maybe 10 million people who 99% will never travel to Russia.
In the US there are 330 million people and they have 5 offices.

LOL! Great news. Now it is personal. Russia has a good excuse to veto anything related to helping "Kosova"* in the UN, especially its ambition to get a UN seat.

Lets not forget FYROM recognising Taiwan but then backtracking later as China closed its embassy and vetoed an extension of UNPREDEP.

This does nothing to hurt Russia but gives it an opportunity to punish those opposing it and demostrate the power that it has.

It is good sign when we see people who few weeks ago wanted to exterminate all Albanians like Ari Gold,are moving several notches up to More than authonomy,less than independence.That's means that the less fanatic segments of Serbian society have accepted Kosovo as independent and next year are going to change the Constitution,according Vucic.

Btw,why do you use Albanian word Ari for Gold and not use Zlatko or whatever is the word in Serbian for Gold?
Just being curious.

Really?! Didn't know that Russia has a complex of inferiority and therefore a need to demonstrate its power!

A small correction here... The Russians tried to help Serbia in 1999 with concrete actions and sent Russian troops to Pristina and confronted NATO soldiers there. But unfortunately (for Serbs) Vlad betrayed Serbia and withdrew those Russian troops from Kosovo in 2003 and he now supports Serbia with words and press statements.

It’s amusing when some provinces join the sanctions. And it was hard for me to sustain from setting my poison free against the region whose budget composes only 50% of it own narco-traffic. Yet I won’t comment it. Albanians are poor people from every point of view and they are compelled to do what they are told. If Germany is bowed what can we expect from the K-People ? My compassions and this time very seriously.

rote,
If only your command of the English language were competent, you would stand a better chance of making a coherent argument, yet still not good enough. I will leave it to you as a homework assignment to correct your deficiencies. The Albanians of Kosova and elsewhere have Besa, a word foreign to most slavs in meaning and concept. We support our frienda as they so nobly supported us in our hour of need. However, feel free to set your poison against us. Incidentally, you must read the latest statistics concerning the poverty level in Serbia and Russia. Lastly, if Kosova were still a province of Serbia, as you so often, but erroneously state, then why would Serbia allow Kosova to sanction Russia, even in principle? I will let you ruminate on this question, knowing it impossible for you to answer truthfully.
Mirupafshim,

These sanctions will NOT hurt Russia, but they will hurt Northern Kosovo as that is the only part of Kosovo which does business with Russia.

Navi, Jeff & Andrew: the Russians do not need any of these things from Kosovo. Russia is more than self-sufficient in all these respects.

On my calendar 2003 came after 2000??? I think he was referencing the complete withdrawal of Russian military by Putin in 2003, and not the event in 1999 where Russia had to retreat from the airport after their bold show of force, that was more like North Korea's attempts to show their military strength by launching "long" range missles to see them fizzle and fall into waters right off shore.

""Kosovo's sanctions against us can only cause a smile. Obviously, they decided to remind of their existence in this way," Pushkov wrote on his Twitter account."

And apparently they succeeded as the comment above demonstrates :)

It wont. Not with Serbia not participating in the sanctions, there is still a way in as Thaci does not have any authority there. North Kosovo may even benefit from them.

Kosovo's sancions matter as much as ony other Balkan country's sancions would matter.
Russia could use Serbia to complete different transactions, since its the only country that has not done so yet.

The restoring of Russia's power by Vladimir Putin, the Prince of Russia. Leaders in the West enjoy referring to the " international community " when they discuss the force that opposes Russia, but in reality such solidarity does not exist. And as tensions between Moscow and the West intensify Russia will lean toward Asia to become its permanent geopolitical posture. Vladimir Putin will lead a 200 million man army, just look at the power he already has. Russia will survive not only the ongoing trade war, but also any larger conflict it may escalate into. A new era is upon us , positive direction for a new Serbia. We Eastern Orthodox Christians face East when we pray, we turn our backs to the evil West. The EU is led by Germany and the Roman Empire which will attempt for the third and last time to dominate Europe, but they are already defeated before they begin. Stay strong Serbia, avoid the EU deception, it is only a prymid where Germany's Roman Empire is on top ruling and the Balkan's Eastern Orthodoxy is on the bottom as slaves.
