Kosovo independence - the bone of contention for US-Russian and Albanian-Serbs - and rhetoric on the same in US is nothing but again much to do for nothing. Will any solution be found for the problem when Serbia is bent upon not to shed its sovereignty over the region and Albanians toiling hard for Independence?
Well, there are two other powers who are toiling hard - US and Russia. For them, Kosovo independence is more or less a power game to prove their influence. The equation goes like, the former supports the independence and latter denounces any such move under UN resolution. Noticeably, the conflict between two super powers of the world has made the issue insurmountable and more intricate than it actually seems to be.
With this rhetoric, would there be another hammer on the loosing knot of US-Russia and Albanian-Serb relations? As long as Russian intransigence remains, no amicable solution can be found. European countries, on the other side, will most probably not support Kosovo independence at the cost of possible confrontation with Moscow.
At the same time - as US President indicates - it’ll support unilateral independence for Kosovo in case no solution will be found. For such a support, Serbian President, Boris Tadic, warned that independence could set a precedent instigating separatist movements. What if Albanians, after independence, will try to shove minority Serbs off? Will US and Kosovo supporters be able to deal with the crises?
As 90% Albanians are stick to their vow of independence and the statement from the Kosovo unveils its pledge that it’ll not settle down for anything less than independence. Meaning is clear, Kosovo is set to get free from Serbia - some way or the other - and how sooner or later it’ll suit the best, is another question.
