STATUS OF KOSOVO

December 2009

Serbia has not recognized Kosovo's independence as a new reality in the region. Its strategy for maintaining the status quo was meant to impose partition as a result of the reality in the field. Ever since Kosovo's independence declaration, Serbia's persistent diplomatic action has had a single goal - to impel partition of Kosovo. Vojislav Kostunica's plan to win...

STRUGGLE OVER PATRIARCH'S LEGACY

December 2009

The funeral of Patriarch Pavle was more than a burial of a church dignitary. The entire obsequial scenario - including memorial ceremonies - was above all designed to demonstrate national unity and show that the entire Serb nation was mourning as one. It is hard to tell who was a mastermind of that all. To all appearances...

MEDVEDEV IN BELGRADE

October 2009

Belgrade hasn't had much opportunity to host notable heads of state over the past two decades. Ex-Yugoslavia's disintegration and Serbia's role in the process - as constants at the international agenda - have only logically brought to Belgrade high officials of many countries, organization and institutions, but high-level visits were truly rare events. No doubt that the visit by...

For the Serbian society, the tragic death of the young Frenchman Bris Taton should serve as a final warning that fascization is in full swing and that citizens, the same as governmental institutions, should start coping with it seriously. One cannot but be worried over the fact that this tragic death is only a natural outcome of the policy of non-impunity and the regime's...   More >>>

SERBIA: GRADUAL RECOGNITION OF KOSOVO REALITY

September 2009

Serbian government elected in spring 2009 retained an ambivalent attitude towards the Kosovo issue - an attitude best reflected in the Democratic Party's /DS/ slogan "Both Kosovo and EU."
