Mundesisht nje permbledhje te shkurter ne shqip te ketyre artikujve qe ke postuar?Nja 10 rresdhta

Lali, po supozoj se te gjithe e dine nga nje gjuhe te huaj, anglishtja nuk eshte shume e veshtire; e njekohesisht jane artikuj te gjate, keshtuqe nuk po e shoh te arsyeshme perkthimin e te gjithe artikujve!!!

Do ta permblidhja ne disa fjali artikullin e fundit nga Tim Judah , me siguri te gjithe keni degjuar per librin e tij per Kosoven per tendencat kolonialiste Serbe ne Kosove.


Ne kete artikull ai kryesisht e trajton poziten e shteteve perendimore ndaj statusit te ardheshem te Kosoves, ku sipas tij, te gjithe (shtetet antare te Grupit te Kontaktit) kane arritur koncesus per statusin e ardhshem te Kosoves si nje shtet i pavarur me kushte te caktuara, dhe ku soveriniteti i Serbise mbi Kosoven do te eliminohet ; te vetmet mospajtime egzistojne rreth modaliteteve/taktikave te arritjes deri te kjo!!!

Sa i perket diskutimeve te tashme te ashtuquajtura "negociata Kosove-Serbi" te udhehequra nga Marti Ahtisari, ato jane ne esence jane formale dhe jo negociata per pavarsine e Kosoves por kryesisht diskutime per poziten dhe ruajtjen e te drejatve te minoritetit Serb ne Kosove :lol: 8)

Sa i perket qendrimit te Serbise, perendimi i ofron DY zgjidhje: Brukselin apo Belarusine, i.e. (qe dmth) ose BASHKEPUNIM te plote dhe respketim te vullnetit te Perendimit nga ana e Serbise, ose te ballafaqohen me IZOLIM dhe sansksione te reja :!: :idea: :arrow:

Rusia dhe Franca si dy shtete (ne kuader te grupit te kontaktit) te cilat konsiderohen te kene pasur qendrime tradicionale miqesore me Serbine, NUK E PERKRANIN qendrimin zyrtar te qeverise serbe, dhe jane ne te njetin tabor me qendrimin Amerikan dhe at Britanez, qe sygjerojne pavaresine e Kosoves!!!

World leaders mourn Kosovo’s president death22/01/2006

Lideret Boterore (te Bashkimit Evropian, Komisionit Evropian, Kombeve te Bashkuara, NATO-s SHBA-ve, Britanise se Madhe, OSBE-se )perkujtojne Kryetarin e Kosoves, zotin Ibrahim Rugova;


(Brussels, DTT-NET.COM)-Leaders of EU, UN, NATO, US and OSCE have expressed their sadness on the death of Kosovo president Ibrahim Rugova, who died Saturday from lung cancer.

“The Commission and its President are saddened by the death of President Rugova. On behalf of the Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso presents his condolences first and foremost to the family. President Rugova was a highly respected leader of Kosovo. The Commission appreciated his work for a peaceful solution to the problems of Kosovo, and encourages all leaders to continue to work in this spirit.” (European Commission).

"It is with profound sadness that I have heard of the death of President Ibrahim Rugova. With him Kosovo has lost a historic leader who devoted his life to protecting and promoting the rights of the people of Kosovo. President Rugova was a man of peace, firm in the face of oppression, but deeply committed to the ideals of non-violence. For this he was loved by his people and respected all over the world. My deeply felt condolences go to his family and to the people of Kosovo. The loss of President Rugova comes at a particularly challenging time for Kosovo. His wisdom and authority will be greatly missed. At this difficult moment I call on all leaders of Kosovo to show unity and responsibility. This is the best way to pay tribute to the memory of President Rugova." (Javier Solana, EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy)

“ It is with deep regret that I have learned of the passing away of the President of Kosovo, Ibrahim Rugova. In the name of the Presidency of the European Union and in my own name I would like to convey my condolences to his family, to the Provisional Institutions of Self-Government of Kosovo and to the entire population of Kosovo.
During his exceptional political career President Rugova worked tirelessly for the interest of Kosovo. As a staunch and unwavering defender of the principle of non-violence he has continuously pursued his efforts through political dialogue. He was not given the chance to complete his political path. At a time, when the future status of Kosovo is being negotiated, we call on all sides to keep up his political legacy in cooperating and finding a solution which will bring peace, prosperity, security and lasting stability to Kosovo and all its people.” (Austrian Foreign Minister Ursula Plassnik, EU Council of Foreign Ministers President).

”I wish to express my condolences to the people of Kosovo upon the death of President Ibrahim Rugova. President Rugova led his people through challenging times and earned the world's respect for his advocacy of democracy and peace. Even while battling his final illness, President Rugova worked to bring unity to Kosovo's leaders and hope to its people. The United States has lost a great friend today. The people of Kosovo have lost a great leader. President Rugova's death comes just as Kosovo enters a political process to determine its future. Despite the loss of his leadership, this process will go on. The United States will continue to work with all the people of Kosovo to build a society based upon the principles of democracy, human rights and inter-ethnic tolerance that President Rugova valued so deeply”. (US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice).

"It is with deep regret and sadness that I learned of the passing of President Ibrahim Rugova. I wish first of all to extend my heartfelt condolences and sympathy to President Rugova's family and to the people of Kosovo. Kosovo has lost a historic leader at this crucial time, as the negotiations on Kosovo's status have entered an important phase. He was the symbol of the aspirations of Kosovo's people and devoted his life to promoting the rights of the people of Kosovo through peaceful means. I was very impressed by his vision for the future, his determination to work for a better Kosovo, and his leadership of the negotiation team. I have fond memories of our meeting in Pristina during my first trip to Kosovo after being appointed Special Envoy. I expect the momentum generated by President Rugova to be sustained, and that Kosovo's political leaders assume the responsibility to remain unified and actively support our common efforts to realize Kosovo's status. I reiterate my commitment to leading the status process to culminate in a political settlement that determines the future status of Kosovo." (Martti Ahtisaari, Special Envoy for the Future status process for Kosovo.

“On behalf of the NATO Alliance, I wish to express my profound condolences at the death of President Ibrahim Rugova of Kosovo after his long illness. President Rugova will be remembered as a man committed to the idea of a fully democratic, peaceful and multi-ethnic Kosovo. Mr. Rugova’s opposition to violence, including during the difficult years that deset the former Yugoslavia, was both brave and remarkable. Until the very end, he served the people of Kosovo with conviction. He played a key role in helping Kosovo down the long and often painful road towards reconciliation, lasting peace and stability. I am confident that his example will continue to guide the people of Kosovo at this important time, and into the future. (NATO Secretary General Jaap De Hoop Scheffer)

"I am struck by a feeling of immense loss over the untimely death of a person who came to embody the search for a peaceful and democratic future for his beloved Kosovo.. Over a lifetime as a dedicated pacifist, through the violence of the Second World War when both his father and grandfather were executed, to the decade of repression in Kosovo before the NATO intervention in 1999, he has always led by his personal example. Truly, he has been an outstanding figure in the history of the Balkans region. We must show our respect for him by not allowing his death at such a sensitive time to alter the very real prospects for a lasting solution. The OSCE will maintain its strong support." (OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Belgian Foreign Minister Karel De Gucht).

“I want to express my deep sympathy and condolences to all the people of Kosovo on the death of President Ibrahim Rugova. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this difficult time.
President Rugova was one of the most popular figures in Kosovo. He created an international awareness of, and concern for, the plight of the Kosovo people. In so doing, he always pursued his goals through peaceful means. His death comes as a process to determine Kosovo's future status has just begun. This is something that President Rugova long wanted and argued hard for. All the people of Kosovo should continue to work for a stable and multi-ethnic society where all people, regardless of ethnic background, race or religion, are free to live in peace and security. This would be a fitting legacy for President Rugova.” (UK Foreign Secretary Jack Straw).

United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan today mourned the passing of Kosovo's President, Ibrahim Rugova, and urged that his legacy of peace be sustained in the period ahead.

In a statement released by his spokesman, the Secretary General hailed the late politician for having "demonstrated true leadership and advocated a peaceful solution for Kosovo."

He noted that Mr. Rugova passed away at a crucial moment, with final preparations now underway for talks on Kosovo's future status. "The Secretary General trusts in the maturity of Kosovo's institutions and believes that the loss of Kosovo's President will not disrupt this process," the spokesman said.

The Secretary General also called on the Kosovo political leaders to maintain their unity and continue cooperating with his Special Envoy, Mr. Martti Ahtisaari, and his Special Representative, Mr. Soren Jessen-Petersen.

Zvicra perkrah njohjen formale te pavaresise se Kosovesdeklarate e Ministres se Puneve te Jashtme te Zvicres, Micheline Calmy-Rey per gazeten Vieneze "Prese".

Switzerland supports formal Independence of Kosovo

VIENNA -- Friday -Swiss Federal Councilor ( Foreign Minister) Micheline Calmy-Rey has said that the problems in Kosovo represent a huge burden for the entire region and that Independence of the province would help resolve many issues there. Her comments were published in an opinion piece in the Viennese newspaper "Prese".

"“As long as its status remains undefined, property and legal problems cannot be solved. As long as there are is no legal authority or order, no one will want to invest in Kosovo"” Calmy-Rey said.

Calmy-Rey said that Kosovo cannot afford to owe anyone money with its current status, because it cannot offer any guarantees that the money will be returned, added that this includes all monetary outlets, including international financial institutions, which is why much of the population remains unemployed.

She reminded that Switzerland stated before the United Nations Security Council on May 27, 2005, that it supports the immediate beginning of the Kosovo status discussions, and that putting Kosovo back under the sovereignty of Serbia is unimaginable and unwanted.

"“Because of this, Switzerland supports the formal independence of Kosovo and supports the fact that the UN, through its Special Envoy Martti Ahtisaari, is ready to begin the future status discussions"” Calmy-Rey said.

Kosova kerkon kompensime lufte nga Serbia

Kosovo to seek war compensation from Serbia

PRISTINA -- Monday - Albanians are expected to demand millions of euro from Belgrade for damages inflicted on the territory's economy since 1989.

Kosovo's delegation plans to throw Serbia onto the defensive at final talks on the future political status of the United Nations protectorate by presenting Belgrade with a huge bill for damages. The Kosovar delegation has set up a special team to handle economic issues, a subgroup of which is now itemising the damages for which they say Serbia is liable.

This group, which first met on January 6, consists of 30 experts in economics, law and engineering, including officials from the presidency, the parliament, the Kosovo Trust Agency, which handles privatisation, and the director of the Trepca mines.

The team is chaired by Muhamet Mustafa, director of the Riinvest Institute, a not-for-profit research institute.

"The experts will be divided into eight groups to organize their work better and approach each issue separately," Mustafa explained.

Among the issues he highlighted were income lost to Kosovars on account of anti-Albanian discrimination in the form of lost salaries, pensions and savings, war damage to property, foreign debt and the issue of succession to the old Yugoslav state.

The chairman said the team would also prepare a report on Kosovo's overall economic sustainability.

A member of the group, Muhamet Sadiku, said Kosovo ran up a foreign debt of 850 to 900 million dollars before 1989, when Serbia effectively scrapped the province's autonomy.

Until then, he said, the province of Kosovo managed its own foreign debt, much like the republics of Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Macedonia, Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

"Since 1989 Serbia has managed Kosovo's debts illegally, which means that since then the institutions of Kosovo have had no direct access to information on this issue," Sadiku said.

Sadiku added that the topic of Kosovo's debts needed to be discussed with the involvement of international financial institutions, such as the International Monetary Fund, IMF, the World Bank and others.

"We expect the starting point of these discussions with the IMF and World Bank to be 1989, whereas all speculation [about Kosovo's debts] after this date belongs solely to the Serbian government," he said.

Kosovo lost its right to assume responsibility for part of the assets and debts of the old Yugoslav federation in the early Nineties, when the Badinter Commission, established by Brussels to establish the criteria for European Union recognition of the independence of the Yugoslav republics, declined to recognize Kosovo as an equal constituent part.

This had serious negative consequences for Kosovo, since it legitimised Serbia's right to hold onto Kosovo's share of the resources of the former Yugoslavia. Now, Kosovo wants its succession rights to be restored and the team believes that future independence for Kosovo will force all partners to re-examine the issue.

[b]As one of their main arguments, the expert team say, records clearly show that Kosovo contributed in the same way as the other federal units to the common assets of the old Yugoslav state.[/b]

Veton Surroi, leader of the opposition ORA party, and Ethem Ceku, the minister of energy and mines, agreed that the economics of Kosovo's divorce from Serbia have been insufficiently studied.

In December, they said the value of key economic assets, such as the Trepca mine complex in northern Kosovo, needed to be assessed and included in the final-status negotiations.

"Belgrade has made repeated claims regarding Trepca and the KEK [Kosovo's power company]," Mr Surroi said.

"But the Kosovo delegation has to make them aware of the damages they inflicted on both those fields during 1989 and 1999," he added.

Kosovar experts consider that Pristina should demand the return of pension funds worth 300 million euro, 150 million euro deposited on Kosovo's behalf in Serbian banks and several million euro to pay for other damages inflicted on Kosovo's public enterprises and property since 1989.

One member, Murat Mehaj, said information in the possession of the expert team undermines Serbia's overall claim to Kosovo, and especially its claims on Kosovo's formerly socially owned property.

While Mustafa said more experts may be enlisted into the team, the exclusion of certain names has invited criticism.

Kujtim Dobruna, of the Vienna-based Economic Initiative for Kosovo, ECIKS, who was not included in the team, argued that there are not enough young people on board.

"Young experts were left aside," he said. "Yet, they are more dynamic and do not carry any burdens from the past."

Turkey’s Kosovo Policy ?
Can Karpat, AIA Turkish and Balkan Section

There are strong historical and psychological ties between the Turks and the Albanians. As to the antagonism between the Turks and the Serbs, it is well known from history. However it seems that Ankara prefers separating emotions from foreign policy nowadays. Turkey, caught between the Ottoman heritage and the European perspective, follows a highly prudent policy about the final status of Kosovo.

“Turkey supports the full implementation of the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244. Turkey has been contributing to security and stability of Kosovo by providing troops, civilian police and specialists to KFOR (Kosovo Force), UNMIK (UN Mission in Kosovo) and the OSCE (Organisation of Security and Cooperation in Europe) Mission in Kosovo. Turkey, with its centuries-long historical and cultural ties with the region, closely follows the developments relating to Kosovo. In this respect, Turkey attaches great importance to the preservation of the acquired rights of the Turkish national minority as well as their fair and equitable representation in the political and administrative structures of Kosovo”

This highly diplomatic language, though, tells much about Turkey’s own anxieties in this matter. Turkey’s anxieties match with those of Russia. Like Turkey, Russia has a long history related to the Balkans as the protector of the Slavs. Therefore, apart the purely Russian interest of hindering the full independence of Kosovo for fear that it be a perilous precedent for its Chechen problem, Moscow does not contradict itself defending the Serbian cause, which is also a Slav cause. On the contrary, Turkey, which is supposed to defend the Ottoman legacy in the Balkans, namely Turkish, Muslim Slav and Muslim Albanian existence, defending the idea of a “strong autonomy within the Serbian borders” for Kosovo, seems to contradict herself. Especially when one knows the strong cultural and moral relations between Albanians and Turks coming from history... Albanian Diaspora in TurkeyKosovo Albanians and Albanians in general were the most loyal subjects of the Ottoman Empire. Guards of Sultans were always chosen amongst Albanians for their courage and loyalty. It is used to be told in Turkey that when Abdulhamit II finally gave in and declared the Second Constitutional Monarchy (Mesrutiyet) in 1908, he did it only when he heard about the Albanian revolt in Kosovo village Verisovic (Ferisaj). When Albanians revolted, this meant the end for the Sultan. Turkish-Albanian relations are strongly rooted in history. Albanian presence on Anatolian soil goes back as early as 15th century. A considerable number of Albanians from Albania, Macedonia and Kosovo immigrated in Turkey following conjectural crises since 1913 when the Ottoman rule ended in the Balkans. The most significant aspect of the Albanian Diaspora in Turkey is that they have neither social nor political problem with the Turkish majority. Since 1999 Turkey asks for a larger autonomy than that Kosovo enjoyed between 1974 and 1989. With this formula, the rights of Kosovo Turkish minority and other non-Albanian minorities may be secured on equal basis.
However, Turkey that recognised rather lately the UNMIK passports is still hesitant about vehicles with the UNMIK license plates. This shows clearly that Turkey, planning her Kosovo policy, takes into account the fact that Kosovo is still legally a part of Serbia-Montenegro. :evil: :evil: :evil:
Turkey’s anxieties about a probable independence of Kosovo can be summoned up in three parties. First of all, Turkey has a “south-eastern problem” since years against the Kurdish separatist organisation, the PKK. In the context of a federal State, one can reason that one federal unit must not harm the territorial integrity of another. Thus, a foreign intervention may be rationalised as Milosevic’s Serbia was violating the autonomous rights of Kosovo. That was a threat to the general stability in the whole region. It may be that Ankara reasoned in that way too at the time of NATO’s intervention. However if then Kosovo is granted independence, this would harm this time the territorial integrity of new democratic Serbia-Montenegro.
On its way to the European Union, Turkey does not want to provoke a Slav-Orthodox bloc against its membership. Ankara must count with this “Belgrade factor”. After all, Turkey knows by the Ottoman experience what Kosovo means for Serbians. Serbians, who were brought up with Prince-Bishop Njegos’ “The Mountain Wreath”, the most famous Serbian epic poem mainly centred on Kosovo Battle of 1389 against the Ottomans, would feel a great resentment in case Kosovo will obtain its full independence. :evil: :evil: :evil:

Pse Kosova duhet të jetë e pavarur?
Micheline Calmy-Rey*

Në mesin e 400 mijë njerëzve nga ish-Jugosllavia, të cilët sot jetojnë në Zvicër, mbi 150 mijë prej tyre rrjedhin nga Kosova. Këta përbëjnë 10 për qind të të gjithë popullsisë së Kosovës. Është e vetëkuptueshme që Zvicra ka një lidhje të veçantë me Ballkanin perëndimor dhe është e interesuar për stabilitet dhe mirëqenie në këtë rajon.
Çështja e statusit të pazgjidhur të Kosovës peshon rëndë mbi mbarë rajonin. Derisa të mbesë i pazgjidhur statusi, nuk mund të zgjidhen, për shembull, të drejtat e pronësisë. Derisa të mungojnë drejtësia dhe rendi, pothuaj askush nuk do të investojë në të ardhmen e Kosovës. Me statusin e sotëm me mandat të OKB-së Kosova nuk mund të marrë kredi, t'i garantojë ato si shtet dhe t'i paguajë. Kjo vlen edhe për paratë e institucioneve financiare ndërkombëtare siç janë Banka Botërore apo Fondi Monetar Ndërkombëtar. Njerëzit mbesin edhe më tutje të papunë, që tani më tepër se gjysma e të rinjve në Kosovë janë e papunë. Me fjalë të tjera, sa më shumë që zgjat situata e tanishme e statusit të pazgjidhur, aq më i madh është rreziku që gjendja në Kosovë të destabilizohet. Për këtë tërheq vërejtjen edhe i ashtuquajturi raport i Eides, drejtuar Këshillit të Sigurimit të OKB-së në tetor 2005. Zvicra është deklaruar herët për statusin e ardhshëm të Kosovës, në një deklaratë para Këshillit të Sigurimit të OKB-së, Më 27 maj 2005 ajo propozoi fillimin e shpejtë të bisedimeve mbi statusin e ardhshëm të Kosovës dhe theksoi se kthimi i Kosovës nën sovranitetin serb as nuk është i dëshirueshëm as realist. Për këtë arsye Zvicra mbështet pavarësinë formale të Kosovës. Ajo shprehimisht përshëndet faktin se ndërkohë nën ndërmjetësimin e të dërguarit të posaçëm të Kombeve të Bashkuara, Martti Ahtisaari, kanë filluar bisedimet për statusin e ardhshëm të Kosovës. Nga shumica e popullsisë së Kosovës Zvicra pret që t'i respektojë plotësisht të drejtat e pakicës serbe dhe pakicave të tjera. Kur është fjala te përmirësimi i standardeve, atëherë nuk mund të ketë kompromise. Statusi i ardhshëm i Kosovës është po ashtu vendimtar edhe për mbrojtjen e pakicave dhe të drejtave të njeriut, sepse për një mbrojtje efektive të pakicave dhe për luftën kundër krimit të organizuar dhe korrupsionit kërkohen struktura funksionale shtetërore.
Standardet e kornizës institucionale dhe praktike, të cilat u garantojnë të drejtat e barabarta të gjithë banorëve të Kosovës, duhet të sigurohen vazhdimisht. Pikërisht për këtë arsye Zvicra në vend të formulës "Standards before Status" parapëlqen formulën "Standards beyond Status": ajo çfarë është me rëndësi është që të ketë një plotësim të pakufizueshëm kohor të standardeve. Derisa të mos jenë të garantuara këto standarde, stabiliteti rajonal nuk mund të përparojë. Zvicra është e vendosur që me anëtarë të tjerë të bashkësisë ndërkombëtare të angazhohet për zgjidhjen e çështjes së statusit të Kosovës.

Annan kritisiert Stagnation im Kosovo

UNO-Generalsekretär Annan hat die Umsetzung der demokratischen Standards in der südserbischen Provinz Kosovo als zu langsam kritisiert. Selbst nach der Aufnahme der Verhandlungen um den zukünftigen Status der Provinz sei bei der Umsetzung der Standards kein signifikanter Fortschritt erreicht worden, erklärte Annan am späten Donnerstagabend vor dem UNO- Sicherheitsrat in New York.





Parallel zu den Verhandlungen über den künftigen Status des Kosovo, die vom UNO-Chefverhandler Ahtisaari seit Ende November geführt werden, müssen im Kosovo bestimmte demokratische Standards umgesetzt werden, die von den Vereinten Nationen formuliert worden waren und von der dortigen UNO-Mission (UNMIK) überwacht werden. Sie beziehen sich unter anderem auf Menschenrechte, die Rechte von Minderheiten und den Aufbau demokratischer Institutionen und sollen die UNO-verwaltete Provinz in eine gut funktionierende, multiethnische Gesellschaft verwandeln. Ursprünglich war die Umsetzung der Standards als Bedingung für die Aufnahme von Status- Gesprächen vorgesehen.

"Ich bin ernsthaft besorgt, dass es Verzögerungen und Dämpfer in den meisten Bereichen der Standard-Implementierung gegeben hat", wurde Annan zitiert. "Die Implementierung der Standards durch die politischen Führer des Kosovo und die Institutionen ist eine Verpflichtung den Menschen des Kosovo gegenüber und muss energisch verfolgt werden."

Gleichzeitig kritisierte Annan auch Vertreter der serbischen Minderheit im Kosovo; sie beteiligten sich nicht aktiv an der lokalen Regierung. Er rief Belgrad auf, die Kosovo-Serben dazu zu ermutigen.
