Central Europe Review - Immigration: Albanians in Greece Besides, Greece is still considered an enemy in the Albanian collective conscience, as Hohxa, the former Communist dictator, had cultivated the idea that the country is surrounded by hostile powers ready to dismember her. Consequently, in the period 1990-99 Greece has not managed to dispel the traditional suspicion of the Albanian population or to portray herself as a regional superpower friendly to Albania. This exodus has strained relations between the two countries, tensions that are further exacerbated by a lack of concrete immigration policies in either country, proper institutions and dialogue between the two states. www.ce-review.org /99/21/vidali21.html

Kosovo's "Forgotten" History The exodus was deliberately provoked by Albanian nationalists, whose aim, according to one communist (and ethnically Albanian) official in Kosovo, was "first, to establish what they call an ethnically clean Albanian republic, and then the merger with Albania to form a greater Albania" (the Times 7/12/82). History supports the point of view that the ethnic Albanians perpetrated the first acts of disobedience and violence toward the government of Yugoslavia and the non-Albanian population of Kosovo-Metohija. In their bid for autonomy, Kosovo's ethnic Albanians claim to be descendants of the region's earliest inhabitants, the Illyrians. www.roca.org /oa/158/158k.htm   (1202 words)

LIST OF CRIMES AND CONFLICTS OF ALBANIANS - www.ezboard.com Ethnic cleansing perpetrated by Albanians against the Serbs was more impressive than that brought up by the Western propaganda at a time when NATO air raids were being prepared. Ethnic Albanians signed the agreement in their base not far from Kosovo in the presence of representatives of NATO. But according to some refugee accounts, the NATO bombing is also a factor in the exodus: "[M]ost residents of the provincial capital say they are leaving of their own accord and are not being forced out at gunpoint, as residents of several western cities and villages in Kosovo say has been happening to them. pub18.ezboard.com /fbalkansfrm89.showMessage?topicID=106.topic   (10203 words)

Kosovo - free-definition It is traditionally said to have accounted for a huge exodus of hundreds of thousands of Serbian refugees from Kosovo and Serbia proper, which left a vacuum filled by a flood of Albanian immigrants. The curriculum was (and still is, as that is the curriculum used for Albanians in Serbia outside Kosovo) basically the same as Serbian and that of all other nationalities in Serbia except that it had education on and in Albanian language. The Albanians reject Serbian sovereignty; although the fall of the Milosevic government has eased some of the political tensions between the two administrations, most Kosovo Albanians do not believe that the Serbian side will respect Albanian rights. www.free-definition.com /Kosovo.html   (10203 words)

Kosovo_faq.text Since the late 1960s, this prejudiced and malignant policy of the Yugoslav Communist Party leadership toward the Serbs in Serbia resulted in exodus of the Serbs from Kosovo. Beyond this idiosyncratic practice, Yugoslav communist government between 1974 and 1989 granted the ethnic Albanian minority in Serbia unmatched privileges.

Information Service of the Serbian Orthodox Church Unfortunately, it seems that the previous statements of the Albanian leaders, who were claiming that the exodus of the Serbs from Pristina would be the triumphant ending of their cleansing of Kosovo and Metohia from the Serbs, will come true. Yesterday, the professors of the University of Pristina had obtained a message from the Albanian leaders saying they had to leave Pristina in 48 hours. Afterwards, the professors held counsel with General Michael Jackson, in the administration building of the University of Pristina. www.spc.org.yu /Ppres/26-6-99_e.html   (382 words)

Carl K. Savich - The Kosovo Crisis: Origins and History The goal of the ethnic Albanian population of Kosovo was to seek union to or annexation with Albania. Centuries of foreign occupation by the Ottoman Turks, a Muslim empire, led to the exodus and migration of the Serbian populations from Kosovo and the Old Serbia region. As part of this Albanian nationalist policy, Kosovo Serbs were driven from the province and those that chose to remain were discriminated against and had no security from nationalist attacks. www.snd-us.com /history/savich_kosovo-origins.htm   (13446 words)

Kosovo Burning - by Nebojsa Malic From the first exodus of over 250,000 non-Albanians in 1999, to the present pogrom, they have consistently failed in that responsibility. Consider now the words of KFOR commander, German general Holger Kammerhoff, who warned that "thousands of ethnic Albanians that attacked KFOR, the police, Serb enclaves and churches should be aware of robust reserve forces." (Reuters) Note how clearly he identifies the attackers and their targets. Western media, however, played it for all it was worth, imputing moral equivalence between organized Albanian pogroms and Serb hooliganism, grasping at straws to retain the well-worn stereotype built so painstakingly over the years. www.antiwar.com /malic?articleid=2164   (1753 words)

The Kosovo Chronicles, by Dusan Batakovic (Part 1b) The physical extermination along with the mass exodus, the burning of grand monasteries and their rich treasuries and libraries, the death and murder of a large number of monks and clergy wreaked havoc in these regions. From 1941 to 1944, ethnic Albanians serving the Italian and German occupation authorities killed some 10,000 Serbs; the worst of suffer were Serbs in Pec and Vitomirica where ethnic Albanian volunteers formations wrought terror: before executing their victims they gouged out their eyes, sliced off their ears and severed other parts of their bodies. The Serbs' first political organization was created under the auspices of the Young Turk regime, but the ethnic Albanian revolt against the new authorities' pan-Turkish policy triggered off a fresh wave of violence. www.snd-us.com /history/dusan/kc_part1b.htm   (1753 words)

Yugoslavia and the world KFOR and UNMIK, Special Representative Kouchner in particular, are solely responsible for the exodus, ethnic cleansing, genocide and apartheid against Serbs, Montengrins, Roma, Goranci, Muslims, Turks and other non-Albanians, as well as for a disastrous situation in all segments of economic and social life in the Province. - The basic human rights of Serbs, Muslims, Roma, Goranci, Turks, Egyptians and other non- Albanian population have been violated on a massive scale (operative para 11j). Verbal support for the multi-ethnic, multi-confessional and multi-cultural Kosovo and Metohija is a mere exercise in hypocrisy by KFOR and UNMIK, taking into account that due to their non-implementation and gross violation of Security Council resolution 1244 (1999), the former composition of the population has been forcibly altered. www.geocities.com /cpa_blacktown/20000607tanjui0609.htm   (1753 words)

Serbs The demographic change was also the result of political and economic conditions; the postwar Serbian exodus from Kosovo accelerated in 1966 after ethnic Albanian communist leaders gained control of the province, and Kosovo remained the most poverty-stricken region of Yugoslavia in spite of huge government investments (see Kosovo, ch.

Kosovo Flash News (October 30, 2000) The elections will, with their results, significantly contribute to the legalization of a mono-ethnic society, which began to be created with the exodus of Serbs and other non-Albanian communities from Kosovo and Metohija. The statement issued by his cabinet said that mono-ethnic elections, in which only ethnic Albanians voted, are in violation of one of the major tasks of the UN mission, preserving a multi-ethnic Kosovo-Metohija. The statement said that elections cannot be held until the international peace mission, in conformity with Resolution 1244, provides peace, order and security for all Kosovo-Metohija residents, stops the violence and terror, enables the return of all the forcibly expelled and agrees on a political solution. www.kosovo.com /sk/news/kfn01030.html   (1753 words)

Institute for War and Peace Reporting Belgrade's relations with NATO reached crisis point in 1999, when Milosevic launched a massive military and police operation in Kosovo, leading to a mass exodus of ethnic Albanians and prompting three months of NATO air strikes against Yugoslavia. Stojanovic strained relations between Belgrade and Brussels this spring by claiming that there were ethnic Albanian “terrorists” - and al-Qaeda members - operating in Kosovo. A major issue facing the authorities in Belgrade as they press ahead with reforms is the position of local arms and military equipment manufacturers, which have been in a particularly difficult position since the UN sanctions imposed through the Nineties and during the 1999 war. www.iwpr.net /index.pl?archive/bcr3/bcr3_200406_504_5_eng.txt   (3133 words)

Balkans and Neighbors Italy at present is content to accept its role as Balkan economic and spiritual savior, a role it filled by accepting many Albanian refugees during the summer exodus of 1991. The Islamic nations of the Middle East have little political interest in a distant European region fighting for independence, but the religious ties have already been tenuously used as a political hammer to increase the international influence of these nations. Although few of these claims are actual government policies, all represent the aspirations of nationalists within the region. www.phoenixcommand.com /hell5.htm   (1614 words)

Defector Dilemma Upsetting Korean Diplomacy - by Ahn Mi-Young Topping Seoul's fears are that a defector exodus will spark a chaotic Albanian-style collapse of North Korea, bringing hungry refugees southward by the millions. "The massive arrival of Northern defectors is generally expected to compound a peaceful resolution to the nuclear standoff between Pyongyang and Washington which has kept the Korean peninsula under the grip of tension since October 2002," said a July 31 editorial in the Korea Times daily. It is yet to be seen whether Pyongyang will use the issue of defectors to skip this week's six-party security dialogue on the Korean peninsula – involving the two Koreas, the United States, China, Japan and Russia. www.antiwar.com /ips/mi-young.php?articleid=3233   (1010 words)

BBC News Monitoring Yugoslav media charts Serb exodus The Bosnian Serb news agency SRNA on Sunday published a statement from the opposition Democratic Christian Party of Serbia calling on Nato and Russian officials to reach a definite agreement on the deployment of peacekeeping forces to prevent any attacks by ethnic Albanian separatists, and protect Serbs wishing to stay in the province. It said the current situation was on the verge of "chaos". Mr Trajkovic said Serbs had also fled, because of the "local authorities' unwillingness to assume responsibility for their security". news.bbc.co.uk /low/english/world/monitoring/newsid_368000/368771.stm   (728 words)

Albania - The Coalition Government of 1991 The move to disband the Sigurimi and form the NIS coincided with a steep rise in crime and a wave of Albanians fleeing to Italy, an exodus that the NIS was unable to stem. An earlier sign that the government was making an attempt to break with the nondemocratic traditions of the past was the announcement in early July that the notorious Sigurimi, the Albanian secret police, had been dissolved and replaced by a reformed security organization (see Security Forces, ch.

Tensions rise as Albania approaches elections Yugoslavia and Albania are in dispute over the plight of the Albanian majority in the Yugoslav province of Kosovo. Student demonstrations, a military clampdown and an emigre exodus have marked the lead-up to Albania's first multiparty elections, scheduled for March 31.
