A thought on the Kosovo question

[-]

Aristo95@reddit

Albanians won't accept anything short of full Kosovo independence and they will also not accept anything that has effects on the internal structure of Kosovo. That was their goal even before the war. But certainly after the war, when they enjoy more or less full support of the West, there is really no incentive to negotiate anything.

The most vivid example is Community of Serb municipalities. The agreement was signed, but there is no real pressure to implement it, so nothing will happen in the near future for sure. I don't really blame them, their position enables them to behave in such way, but these attempts from Serbian side to find some sui generis solutions are completely meaningless.

[-]

KA-1991@reddit

Yeah both sides pretty much mess up the situation. With provocations instead of solutions.

I think the best solution is: both of them at the same time into the EU. there are no borders anymore. And conflicts will be avoided most probably. this will take some time though. Due to the huge amount of problems both parties have. Greetings my friend. Hopefully one day we will be able to visit each other as neighbours. Not for provocations and escalations. 😊

[-]

35BCx1405AD@reddit

I have literally no idea how you could look at the situation and say that both sides are messed up. The entire situation happened because for no reason at all western Europe decided to split Albania up and give half of it to Yugoslavia.

Whatever justification you have for that, the complete failure to integrate Albanians into Yugoslavia, and that’s being nice, was uncalled for. It started with the “failed integration” and ended with a failed genocide.

The reason Kosovo exists is because south Slavs couldn’t get over their homicidal jealousy over our Illyrian bloodline, predating them, or having a national reputation of being little mountain Muslims, or problematic Catholics.

What’s happening now, Is Kosovo was trying to act an independent nation, against assaults from apathetic Europeans and vengeful Chetniks.

Kosovo is doing what we have doing since day one.

Barely surviving.

[-]

KA-1991@reddit

I don't support what Serbia is doing. All the provocations and invasions (e.g.January 2017, or September 2023). Hell no.

But I think that Kurti is not trying to move the country forward. He is the same as Vucic but from the other side.

He is rude and doesn't know what it takes to being a politician. And provokes as well. Maybe not on Serbias level but anyway.

And to your other point, why Europe split Albania and gave a part to Serbia... it is what it is, will you cry about the past or do you want the best for the future of Kosovo? I fear you won't accomplish anything by complaining how unfair the past was. Look into the future. 😊

I think both sides need to shake hands and not be bloody enemies. In 50 years the new generation of Albanians and Serbians will not even care about anything that happened and will want the best for their future.

[-]

35BCx1405AD@reddit

Vucic has direct ties to incredibly violent euro drug cartels. That alone stops this whole “same guy” argument. Until proof is provided that Kurti has stooped to that level, I won’t even consider them the same.

In fact, They’re aren’t even any Rumors insinuating such, and believe me we Albanians would love to jump on that, as an ethnic group at least.

As for history, it matters in manners of political discourse if it can be used to describe current relationships and interactions.

In fact, it was less of statement of simple borders redefining and more of a statement of an ethic group taking complete advantage of another.

I personally have family members who suffered greatly from this, and you make it seem like 50 YEARS BRO YOULL BE OKAY DOKIE.

I’ll tell you this, maybe one day when Serbia completely sheds its Chetnik Ideology, then one day we can get along, but until then, the clock is frozen.

[-]

KA-1991@reddit

They burned down our house as well. And they killed 3 of my family members.

Many people in Kosovo suffered from the war!

What is your plan now? Wait for redemption? There will be non. Act like you are offended and don't want to move on? This is what we are doing now, doesn't seem to work. Blame others for your situation? Do it, but we are a weak country. Pointing the finger on others (especially EU and US) can have some real bad impact.

Don't also forget that cultural wise Serbians are way closer to Western Europe and USA than us. Even though they act like they are more like Russians, they are not. So it is more likely they are supported than that we are. What Europe and USA is doing is just bla bla. In the end they invest in Serbia a lot and create vacancies while we are still in the corner crying and blaming others.

Let me remind you the goal for which Albanians fought. This is the KLA oath:

“I, a soldier of the Kosovo Liberation Army, swear that I will fight for the liberation of Albanian lands and their unification. I will always be a loyal soldier and a worthy fighter for freedom, vigilant, brave, and disciplined, ready at any time, without sparing even my life, to fight in defense of the sacred interests of the Homeland. If I break this oath, may I be punished by the harshest laws of war, and if I betray it, may my blood be forever lost. I swear!”

Independence was a sacrifice on our part.

[-]

theTRULYdeadguy876@reddit

i hate when people dumb down the kosovo conflict to just "join albania". No kosovo is its own state and is a multi ethnic one, that was the agreement. We need to promote co-existence between the 2 ethnicities and let them chose their fate. There is a lot of tension and hatred (a lot of it warranted) on both sides, which will not be resolved with redrawing borders or more conflict.

Its neither Tiranas or Beograds job to fix the "kosovo issue". It hasnt been that way since 2007.

[-]

35BCx1405AD@reddit

People aren’t dumping down the conflict. It was the literal basis of a Adem Jasharis ideology. The problem is that Albania proper didn’t feel like actually having a motivated population to foil there insane Ponzi scheme plans and thereafter.

Also, if it wasn’t the serbs posturing their military near the border every now and then, launching RECENT terrorist attacks against the fragile state, for doing everything in their power to delegitimize the political integrity of the country, maybe people would see it as a new state in the region.

Now it looks like an abused younger cousin not even brother, because Albania Proper dosent give a fuck about its own population, let alone “Kosovars”.

Hell, Edi Rama staying silent on the whole language issue in North Macedonia is disgusting. But what can I expect from you guys you know?

[-]

Lonely-Ad8869@reddit

She doesn't have to speak Albanian, also almost no Albanian politician ever speaks Macedonian, and they make a point of it since they know it. Whereas most Macedonians do not know Albanian, as they never needed it, such is the case with the minister in question. The fact that a nationalist Albanian journalist insists that everybody should speak Albanian, does not make it true. The whole situation was prompted by a nationalist Albanian mayor (town with more than 20% Macedonians!) who never gets interpreters for the Macedonian journalists and treats them very poorly. You are getting served one sided propaganda.

Supreme court judge is a nasty person set up there by Ali Ahmeti's party, he is just doing their bidding. Its not like its some moral giant.

The bar exam protests were also literally Ahmeti's party doing shit, where are the protests now? Like it was for political purposes, did it for 2 days, they made a deal, the "protestors" are withdrawn. Its a nothingburger. But I guess in Albania or Kosovo, or where ever you are its the only piece of the story you see.

I see lot of Alb nats saying multi ethnic model is just a way to destabilize the region and sabotage local politics.

It seems for now we are just indefinitely prolonging the status quo post-bellum without finding some kind of durable settlement.

No, it should join Albania. That’s not dumbing it down—it was the initial desire and still is the majority desire of the people. It’s also not really “multiethnic”.

[-]

Complex_Shine_1113@reddit

Why can’t Kosovo just be a multi ethnic independent state? As someone that lives in a highly mixed neighbourhood of Skopje with Macedonians, Albanians, Turks, Serbs, Romani, Vlachs, Bosniaks, Croatians, and even an African woman, I don’t understand why everything has to be homogeneous in order to have harmony. Everyone lives in peace and gets along in my neighbourhood and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Kosovo was created as a state for both Albanians and Serbians so why not keep it multiethnic and everyone live peace? Politics are a cancer.

[-]

Lonely-Ad8869@reddit

Man don't lie. Nobody lives in peace in mixed neighborhoods in Skopje. In fact there are none left, so I wonder what you are calling a mixed neighborhood.

Chair used to be mixed, now its 99% muslim, and 90% Albanian. Saraj used to be mixed, has close to 0 Macedonians left.

[-]

HighlanderMX4@reddit

What about the other neighborhoods of Skopje, were they always 100% Macedonian? Or where they mixed as well before 63' earthquake

[-]

Lonely-Ad8869@reddit

Apart from Chair which was mixed albanians, turks, roma, Macedonians, and others tbh (Saraj was a officially village next to Skopje), Albanians didn't live so much in the city in the past, mostly in the villages to the west (like Saraj) and to the north of Skopje.

With time they moved more and more, like everybody else, from the villages to the cities. So you can check the historic census's their numbers keep increasing since ww2.

Life-King-9096@reddit

Kosovo’s current path is unsustainable, which is why Serbia is playing a long game. The barriers to Kosovo merging with Albania mirror the issues with Korean reunification: one side is wary of the cost. Many in Albania are likely reluctant to absorb a region requiring such massive infrastructure investment, especially if it brings in nationalist elements that could jeopardise Albania’s EU accession. Since the West won’t permit Kosovo to collapse or revert to Serbian control, the status quo is the only viable path for now.

[-]

35BCx1405AD@reddit

I would completely understand the anxiety from the Serbian side of this new Albanian “superstate” not just failing to integrate, but actively discriminating against this new minority group, (even though it’s only existed from the opposite side), and how there would need to be absolute guarantees to protect these people.

But I fail to comprehend with the first two lines of your second paragraph.

What would return and resettlement even be? Would it refer to people who lived in Kosovo before the war? What if they moved to Germany already? How would you guarantee that the Serbian state wouldn’t take advantage of that?

It’s also interesting how you only mention orthodox Christianity when Catholic Albanians suffered just as much from Yugoslavia.

Also, I’m not joking when I say I don’t want Serbs to be subjugated to Edi Rama and his Neo-Sigurimi corruption.

Albania has chosen to be a complete and utter shit hole in every important category possible such as industry, infrastructure, agriculture , education, and healthcare, even things such as youth sports. Albanian politicians have decided to only overdevelop the country into a digital nomad paradise and now even they are complaining about the prices, so I don’t know how Serbs making €500 a month would like to be part of that.

Even Kurti is finding it difficult to maintain power simply because he is battling corruption. I don’t even know how serbs would react to this new country the if Kurti and his party would be the ones running things.

The guy is basically your Osama or something.

And imagine if life gets better on their “Osama”.

It doesn’t matter, bro we’re all working construction in Germany, and our countries will be soon replaced by Indians and Senegalese. They don’t care about you and only want a villa in Switzerland and that’s it.

As of late 2025, 110 out of 193 (57%) United Nations member states recognize Kosovo's independence. While this represents a majority of UN members, the percentage of the world's population is lower because key non-recognizers include highly populous nations like China, India, Russia, Brazil, and Indonesia.Key Recognition Facts:UN Status: 110 UN member states officially recognize Kosovo, though this number is contested.Regional Recognition: 22 out of 27 (81.5%) European Union members and 28 out of 32 (87.5%) NATO members recognize Kosovo.Key Opponents: Serbia (which considers Kosovo part of its territory), Russia, China, Spain, and others do not recognize it.Withdrawals: Serbia claims several nations have withdrawn recognition, a claim dismissed by Kosovo.Due to the lack of recognition from several of the world’s most populous nations, the 110 countries that recognize Kosovo represent significantly less than 50% of the total global population.

I think the bigger issue of any absorption is the can of worms it open for other areas, the international community pushed for uti possidetis juris, during the breakup of Yugoslavia so new states inherited their existing internal borders from Yugoslavia to prevent territorial disputes.

integration of Serb areas of Montenegro to Serbia
integrate of Albanian areas of Macedonia to Albania
integration of Bosniaks of Sandžak into a Bosnian nation state

This is just embarrassing.

The "Federal Republic of Yugoslavia" is not the same thing as "Serbia". Surely you can see the difference? Different borders, different spelling, different era. Although Serbia is now run by Milošević's propaganda minister.

Resolution 1244 does not say that Kosovo belongs to Serbia.

There is a broader consensus that Kosovo was part of Yugoslavia, but Serbia only changed its constitution to pretend that it owned Kosovo, after the failure, after the retreat.

Don't feel embarrassed because you're uneducated. Serbia is a legal successor state of Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

[-]

Useless_or_inept@reddit

Strangely enough, Serb lawyers contradicted you at the Hague; they said that Serbia isn't the successor state. (Therefore Serbs aren't bound by treaties that FRY signed, therefore war criminals should be released).

But Resolution 1244 was 27 years ago; other things have happened since then. For instance, Kosovo declared independence. And Serbia retrospectively changed its constitution to pretend that it still owned Kosovo - good luck finding a lawyer outside Belgrade (or Moscow) who agrees with that. Pure cringe. 😄

Of course it's not a rocket science, so I'm confusing why you find it so confusing. Do you always slightly change facts to superficially look correct or you're simply misinformed?
