Yeah, that's really what Serbia needs. Getting in bed with the Russians, pissing off the West and having to deal with a province full of heavily-armed, cranky minorities who hate Serbs.
Forget it. It's time for Serbia to move on. Let the West deal with Kosovo, if it is so inclined.
That's not as easy as it sounds when the last of the Serbs left in Kosovo are getting screwed over, including the priests and nuns who refuse to leave their ancient monasteries.
And then there are stories like this, where the Albanians cut off even medical supplies to the remaining Serbs and the West says, "Too bad, go screw yourselves, Serbs":
Enclave-bound medical supplies seized 19 November 2008 | 15:39 | Source: Beta KOSOVSKA MITROVICA -- Customs officers in southern Kosovska Mitrovica have seized a large consignment of medications destined for Serb villages in the Zubin Potok municipality.
Deputy Director of the Kosovska Mitrovica Health Center Milan Ivanović told Beta that Albanian customs officers had stopped a sanitary vehicle belonging to the northern Mitrovica Healthcare Center in the village of Košutovo yesterday afternoon.
The officers confiscated a large supply of medication intended for health centers in Dren, Banje, Crkolez and Suvo Grlo, and for patients living in majority Albanian communities.
The customs officers confiscated the entire consignment of medication and fined the driver and a nurse EUR 500. The officers also threatened to seize their vehicle next time, despite it being registered in full line with the law, said Ivanović, the president of the Serb National Council of Northern Kosovo.
He said that the confiscation of medicine was a new kind of pressure on the Serbs living in Albanian communities.
