I suppose this show that even the Serbian government is finding it hard to justify not allowing Kosovo to have independence.

We're in the process of trading a stable government for a radical one in Serbia. It all could have been prevented with a concise 'abstain'.

Hi it's us... Serbia. Sorry about all that previous name calling. Listen, we seem to be falling apart over that Kosovo thing and was wondering if we could borrow some duct tape to hold us together now. Got any?

We seem to have forgotten the EU, US, and others have indirectly caused this collapse. I believe it is in the interest of all nations to allow Serbia into the EU (yes, even Kosovo).

The title of this thread should be: Serbian government collapses.

New elections have been scheduled for May, 11th.

Default The independence of Kossovo is not legitimate

.

Through the present petition, we urge the countries which have recognized Kossovo's independence to rescind their decision.

In the eyes of international law, this independence is neither legitimate nor legal with regard to the minorities living in the cradle of Serbian culture.

History has taught us that poking one's nose in the Balkanic powder keg always leads to dire internationational consequences.

Serbia is a failed state.

Finally, this will give serbs two options;

EU and accept the Republic of Kosova statehood reality.


or

isolation with radicals.

Serbia has been nourished on radical nationalism for the last 35 years.
They won't give up to radicalism w/o killing another 100,000 innocent women, babies and children.
My statement may sound irrational but the reality speaks very clear on this!

They're hungry to suck more innocent blood!

Shall the cannibal fangs appear, time will tell!

Yes, that's the problem. We always have 2 options.

Crap, as everything that comes out of your keypad.

Crap again. Prove that Serbs have killed 100,000 people.

Crap, crap, crap... You are so full of crap.
