Nato currently has 4,500 troops stationed in Kosovo

The US is urging Serbia to withdraw what it says is a large military build-up on the country’s border with Kosovo.

In the past months, tensions have been rising between Kosovo’s minority ethnic Serb and majority Albanian communities.

Speaking on Friday, White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby described the “large military deployment” of sophisticated tanks and artillery as “a very destabilising development”.

“It’s worrisome. It doesn’t look like just a bunch of guys who got together to do this,” Mr Kirby said.

“We are calling on Serbia to withdraw those forces from the border.”

When they say “tensions”, it means Serbian kids getting killed as they walk home from school by bearded moslem men who are then paraded around town as heroes as they cash NATO checks. That kind of “tensions”.

The USS Gerald Ford's carrier strike group is off the coast. If Serbia is dumb enough to attack the United States and her NATO allies, I don't think it'll go super well.

What about the unsophisticated tanks and artillery?

Nobody ever talks about them.

Why are we even in Kosovo? Not our country, not our business to plant our butts in what belongs to other people.
