BRUSSELS, KOSOVSKA MITROVICA -- Beta says an analysis shows Kosovo's unilateral declaration will first be recognized by some Islamic countries.
The news agency has had insight into the document, put together "by some EU countries", that says the province's independence declaration, rejected by Serbia, will be recognized in "three waves".
Albania, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and some other Muslim countries will lead the way, the report says.
This will be followed by Austria, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, Belgium, and, the document speculates, France, Great Britain, Germany and Italy.
The United States is also likely to recognize Kosovo very soon.
The "second wave" is said to include Croatia and Macedonia.
Others will be careful and wait to see how the situation develops, bearing in mind the precedent such recognition sets.
Russia, China, Cyprus, and a number of EU countries that were earlier reported as opposed to the recognition, that include Romania, Bulgaria, Spain, Slovakia and Greece, will not recognize Kosovo.
The presence of the first two countries on that list also means that the province cannot count on a UN seat, or membership in a number of other international organizations where Russia has the veto power.
Bosnia-Herzegovina's recognition will be made impossible by the Republic of Srpska's objection, the study concluded, and added that countries such as India, Brazil and Argentina are also "very critical" toward the possibility of recognizing Kosovo as a separate country.
Meanwhile, Duan Janjić, who heads the Forum for Ethnic Relations, said that "independence of Kosovo and Metohija, which the United Nations will not recognize, will have only political and psychological weight at first," while "only later will it become evident that it is not what the Kosovo Albanians had expected."
In a live broadcast by the Kosovska Mitrovica radio Kontakt Plus, Janjić said late Saturday that the self-proclaimed independence "will not bring full freedom, better life, while new passports will not enable them to travel everywhere."
"Around 40 countries will recognize them, which is fewer than the number of countries that recognize passports issued by UNMIK today. That will be the beginning of a dangerous phase, which is when the Albanians will realize that it is not what they had been promised for the past 20 years. That will open room for extremists," cautioned Janjić.
Basically Kosovo is a landgrab by terrorist muslim Albanians
and has become a major drug running country since Clinton and Halfbright decided to demonize the Christian Serbs.
Let me find some older links for you...
while I agree with Siderov’s statement on Kosovo, Ataka is in no means a conservative party. BTW, Ataka’s nationalism is just a facade. It’s another pro-Russian party, set by the Bulgarian communist secret police in order to keep the Bulgarian sheeple divided and under control.
Thanks to the Clintoons and their stooges in the State Department, Al-Qaeda has had a place to operate in the middle of the Balkan peninsula in Kosovo for a few years now.
I know the collapse of a Jihadist pseudo-nation will make you sad, but justice has that effect!
LOL!
In a commentary published today in the Prague daily "Pravo", Diensbier assessed that, in the event of independence, the extremists would not be content just with Kosovo.
"UNMIK chief consoles himself that the Albanian leaders have condemned violence," writes the former human rights rapporteur for the former Yugoslavia, adding that these condemnations, however, cover "only attacks on international forces, civil and religious objects but not on Serbs".
In an article entitled "Picking up the pieces in Kosovo - What will happen next in the region?" Dienstbier reminds that six years ago Ibrahim Rugova ensured him that the Kosovo Albanians would protect the non-Albanian population and common historical heritage.
"How would he protect anything when under UN administration and with troops under the command of NATO one quarter million Serbs, Roma, Croats, Bosniacs and Gorans were expelled?" asks Diensbier, adding that "the quiet intellectual Rugova would be unlikely to survive independence".
The Czech diplomat further warns that "for the extremists, independence is a base for international trade in drugs, women, for human and goods smuggling of every kind and the long-term expansion of their power into all areas inhabited by Albanians in Macedonia, southern Serbia, in Montenegro."
In Greece, too, "where the Olympics is to be held, there are also 100,000 Albanians", he reminds and assesses that it is necessary to start from the beginning and differently.
"Probably the only way of building a civil society is gradual drawing nearer, decentralization and forming of self-governmeing districts by ethnic groups whose security will be guaranteed by the UN and KFOR," proposed Dienstbier on the pages of the Czech daily.
The explanation of many world politicians that this would lead to the ethnic partition of Kosovo is rejected by Dienstbier who comments that "due to the inactivity and incompetence (of the international administration), the partition already occurred a long time ago", whereas decentralization would only mean "creating conditons for the restoration of normal human contacts".
It was in order to prevent Serbian ethnic cleansing of Albanians during an Albanian guerrilla uprising in 1999 that NATO bombed Serbia, compelling its forces to withdraw from Kosovo. NATO then occupied the province together with the United Nations.
In the immediate aftermath, Albanian revenge attacks, arson, killing, abduction and intimidation drove 200,000 Serbs out of Kosovo.
And in a short time the Saudis might behead a woman for witchcraft. Now, would someone please tell me why anyone in his right mind supports another bridgehead for this benighted religion into Europe?
If it's NATO vs. The Russians over Kosovo, I have just two words: Go Vladimir!
I guess that's lesson number one.
I've never put all of the puzzle pieces together in regards to the middle east because they seem to be in constant flux. I should not have spoken up when I know so little.
Thank you so much for being so kind in your sharing of info...and thank you for taking the time to find it.
I stand happily corrected by your gracious instruction!
Go Vlad. Do something...
Thank you, again!
Do some research and you could probably answer your own question!
pick up the book Unholy Terror by John R. Schindler, Professor of Strategy, U.S. Naval War College.
The Bosnian conflict of 1992 to 1995 has been largely misrepresented in the West . . . until now. In Unholy Terror, John R. Schindlerprofessor of strategy at the Naval War College and former National Security Agency analyst and counterintelligence officerreappraises the war in Bosnia, illuminating its pivotal role in the development of radical Islamic terrorism.The long hidden truth is that Bosnia played the same role for al-Qaida in the 1990s that Afghanistan did in the 1980s, providing a battleground where mujahidin could learn to wage holy war. Schindler exposes how Osama bin Laden exploited the Bosnian conflict for his own ends and the disturbing level of support the U.S. government gave to the Bosnian mujahidinjust as had been done with the Afghan mujahidin. Repeating the mistakes of Afghanistan contributed to blowback of epic proportions: Khalid Sheikh Muhammad (the mastermind of 9/11) and two of the 9/11 hijacker pilots were veterans of the Bosnian jihad.
Unholy Terror is a compelling and meticulously researched step toward finally learning the lessons of Bosnia, which can only help in the continuing battle against Muslim extremists and their global jihad.
....An insult to Neanderthals!....
Perhaps it is. The Neanderthals seem to have advanced over time. And we may derive some of our genes from them, including some that are involved in the structures of our brains. (The evidence is by no means all in—the genome work continues.)
In contrast, the K-Albanians are Homo sapiens, fully equal to the rest of us. And their ancestors started out with at least the potential for civilization. But they degenerated over time, into a clan-based Stone Age-like culture and as enforcers for Turks, Nazis, Saudis and Iranians, and for current globalists.
In the context of preparing for Great Lent, let us beware of letting our sins lead us in a similar direction. Lord have mercy!
Not good news.
They will regret it. Mark my words.
btt
Sunni or later Shite happens.
It always does. The problem with TROP is that they have a lack of good sects..
New Zealand is on the fence, but Sri Lanka refuses recognition.
