Kosovo Counting on NATO

By NEBI QENA – 34 minutes ago

PRISTINA, Kosovo (AP) — Kosovo is counting on NATO to secure the new nation's borders and help provide stability as Serbia angrily challenges its statehood, the president said Thursday in his first interview since Kosovo declared independence.

President Fatmir Sejdiu said in an interview with The Associated Press that NATO's promise not to abandon Kosovo provided a "powerful guarantee" for stability. He warned Serbia that any attempts to partition the fledgling country along ethnic lines would bring "grave consequences."

Oh boy. This is a dangerous development.

If it comes down to Russia and Serbia v. NATO, this could end in a hail of nukes. That is all we need is for NATO to come to the aid of Kosovo when Russia and Serbia start rolling their tanks to quell this "rebellion". We may soon see the world's first tactical use of nuclear weapons.
