		Advocates for Kosova's Independence (AKI) February 12, 2003 ================================== AKI Newsletter, Issue 13 ================================== AKI STATEMENT The recent IWPR Balkan Crisis Report focuses entirely on the ongoing struggles over the final status of Kosova, which the Bush administration with its proclivity to aggression and its aversion to nation-building, has washed its hands of.
		Kosovo is thus in a sort of international twilight zone: a de jure part of Yugoslavia (now renamed "Serbia and Montenegro"), yet simultaneously a de facto UN protectorate under international administration, which may well be on the road towards independence.
		Rather than repeat the traditional mantras of returning the whole province to Belgrade rule, he takes the line that independence for Kosovo is not a taboo topic; but he also has begun to hint about partition of the province as part of an independence deal.

		The unanimously passed resolution is being viewed as an attempt by the province to act as an independent state.
		The incident is also seen as the most serious rift in relations between the province's ethnic Albanian leadership and the UN since the world body took charge of the province in June 1999.

		Belgrade, 27 Oct. (AKI) - Some 6.6 million registered voters are this weekend expected to confirm in a referendum Serbia's new constitution, reaffirming the country's claims over breakaway Kosovo province and aimed at blocking the drive for independence by the province's ethnic Albanian majority.
		Political analysts said Jovanovic’s campaign had little chance of success, adding that he was just testing the pulse of the voters to see whether his anti-referendum coalition could reach the threshold of five percent of votes cast at parliamentary elections expected in December.
		Some 100,000 Serbs living in Kosovo are also expected to vote in favour of the new constitution, but it is a foregone conclusion that the province's 1.7 million ethnic Albanians, who have boycotted all Serbian institutions and elections in the past 20 years, are virtually certain to abstain.
