Serbian infants, some in incubators, are on a verge of death because of lack of oxygen that is deliberately held back until Kosovo Serbs recognize Kosovo as an independent state.
"If you want your babies and elderly to live, if you want oxygen, recognize independent Kosovo," quotes a message Dr. Stojan Sekulic from the General Hospital in Gracanica received.
Dr. Sekulic says that the separatist authorities in the province have seized oxygen bottles sent to his hospital from Belgrade and have told him that they will be delivered only when Serbs recognize Kosovo.
Spokesman for UNMIK at the administrative border crossing at Kosovo says that the driver of the oxygen shipment only had a bill that the oxygen was paid for.
"That was absolutely inadequate. He did not have complete documentation for imports. To enter Kosovo he needed to have a permission by the Ministry of Health of an independent Kosovo," says the spokesman.
The spokesman added that the oxygen will be released only when a complete documentation is submitted.
Hospital in Gracanica has nearly run out of oxygen.
It's important that we be honest. Bill Clinton's actions in Kosovo abrogated the Treaty of Westphalia -- which had governed the state of national borders since 1648.
Of course, in its own way, so did the occupation of the Sudetenland...
What a crapload. Just why, exactly, have countries been invading each other for the last 2000+ years?
