Spanish prime minister Jose Luis Zapatero has reaffirmed that Spain will not recognise Kosovo as independent, newspapers in Kosovo and Serbia reported on March 10 2009.
"Spain's position on the unilateral declaration of Kosovo's independence is known - it is non-recognition," Zapatero was quoted as saying by Kosovo daily Koha Ditore.
"We have maintained this position and we will continue to do so in the future."
Addressing a joint news conference on March 9, Serbian president Tadic said that his country would never recognise Kosovo, which unilaterally declared itself as independent in February 2008.
"Serbia will not give up on its territorial integrity...with legal and diplomatic means, and it will never recognise the independence of Kosovo," Tadic said.
The human rights of Serbs in Kosovo were under threat, he said.
Tadic said that Serbia was very grateful to Spain for its principled stance not to recognise Kosovo, and for its support to Serbia's EU membership candidature.
Zapatero confirmed that Spain supports Serbia's European integration.
A report by Serbia's Blic Online said that Spanish foreign minister Miguel Angel Moratinos, at a meeting with his Serbia counterpart Vuk Jeremic, spoke in favor of unblocking of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement between the European Union and Serbia.
Moratinos said Spain would continue to apply pressure so that the Netherlands made possible implementation of the SAA as well as the transitional trade agreement between the EU and Serbia.
The Netherlands has been a leader in opposing the implementation of the SAA until it is satisfied that Serbia is co-operating adequately with The Hague international tribunal on war crimes in the former Yugoslavia
Did they not support the butcher of the Balkans, Mladic and Karadzic?
Written by a Serb:
“The religious sentiment of the Servians [i.e. Serbians] is neither deep nor warm. Their churches are generally empty, except on very great Church festivals, and on political festivals. The Servians of our day consider the Church as a political institution, in some mysterious manner connected with the existence of the nation. They do not allow anyone to attack her, nor to compromise her, although, when she is not attacked, they neglect her.”

Oh yeah, the Serbs and the rest of Europe "invited" the Turks to rape pillage and plunder Europe spreading the word of Allah by the sword! They asked for it!
I guess Serbs could have sold her soul to Islam (like most of the Albanians did) and become "winners" like the Albanians, but instead chose to suffer for Christ in keeping their Faith for those 400 years, generation after generation being "raped" as you put it without giving in or giving up.
Gee, Serbs should be so "embarrassed" before God!
You sold more than your soul, you fought for them and served them loyally. At least don't brag.
You are certifiably insane!
The secret/s Serbs don’t want anyone to know. How old was Lazar’s daughter, Olivera Despina, when she ...?

We know you despise the Serbs for standing against the same people who gave us 9/11.
Maybe when the Jihadists kill someone you give a damn about, you’ll change your tune.

What does Saudi Arabia have to do with Olivera Despina or your saint, Lazarevic?
I think you were using the name ‘Appalled but not Surprised’ the last time you tried to use Tsar Lazar references against the Serbs.

Don’t you ever get tired of getting banned again, Bonly?
Here it is: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/religion/1128503/posts?page=12#12
Yes, that was Ronly Bonly Jones back in May 05, 2004, just one month prior to his original banning when he attempted to invoke the name of ‘Tsar Lazar’ as a substitute for an argument that he was losing so badly.
Some things never change, only RBJ’s screen name.
You are funny, but in a sad way. The history is not as you would like it so you try to change the subject or block any messenger.
Nice try.
Servs were loyal Turkish vassals. Why did you fight so many times against Christians even as you kept building churches for yourself?
Why did you burn 150 Croatian Catholic Churches if you are ‘Christians’ ? http://www.ifla.org/IV/ifla61/61-riea.htm
There you go again, quoting Noel Malcolm, a certified Serb hater, and a biased source as usual!!!!
And the REAL Butcher of the Balkans is clinton!!!!
Bonly boy, how many times do I have to point out to you that those churches were attacked by Communists, not Serb Christians.
Geez, it’s been 4 years since I disproved that same bit of doggerel, haven’t you come up with any new lies from your pro-jihad websites by now?
LOL!
Well, you know Bonly boy and his love of Soros-supported websites! Where else can he find his garbage?
Bonly boy, how many times do I have to point out to you that those churches were attacked by Communists, not Serb Christians.
Why didn't they burn Serbian Churches as well then? Lie debunked.
He was quoting a serb, and looking at Servia's abortion rates, alcoholism etc once can see how right he was.
Quoting from yet ANOTHER major league Serb-hater, Andras Riedlmayer of Harvard (Michael Sells’ friend).
He’s bought and paid for by the Aga Khan Foundation, too. Another paid muslim shill, like Sells.
Yes, Honorary Serv, there is a conspiracy by everyone against God’s chosen people, the Serbs.
Or :
“A lie, trait of our patriotism” “We lie to deceive ourselves, to console others, we lie for mercy, we lie to fight fear, to encourage ourselves, to hide our and somebody else’s misery. We lie for love and honesty. We lie because of freedom. Lying is a trait of our patriotism and the proof of our innate intelligence. We lie creatively, imaginatively and inventively.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dobrica_%C4%86osi%C4%87
I challenge you to present ANY archaeological evidence supporting the Albanian-Illyrian connection, in fact, I dare you.
Why are you a muslim apologist who quotes muslim shills that are not welcome here on FR?
