With Kosovo \"expected\" to declare independence sometime Sunday, is anyone else not feeling entirely optimistic here?
Besides the fact that the Orthodox will most likely be persecuted, there is to consider the international repercussions:
1) other minority secession groups will demand to be granted independence. One example would be the Basque people of Spain and France.
2) Putin has said that if Kosovo is given independence than he should be able to bring in the regions of South Ossetia and Abkazia from Georgia.
3) Kosovo has always been part of Serbia. The only exceptions are during the Ottoman days and WW2. Taking Kosovo would be like taking Washington DC, New York and the other thirteen original states.
