	Serb Proposals for Partitioning Kosova
		The idea of partitioning Kosova has been elaborated upon by the another Serb academic, Branimir Krstic (note 1), who proposed a division between Serbs and Albanians such that Serbs would take some 30 to 40% of the territory.
		He suggested the partition of Kosova in order to cut the knot of Kosova which was becoming a very heavy burden for Belgrade in the post-Dayton period.
		In fact, the idea of making cantons in Kosova would eventually lead to partition, but unlike the earlier partition proposals relying on the "fire and iron" method of ethnic cleansing, this would be a slightly longer process.

		Like neighboring Latvia, Estonia has a sizable ethnic Russian and Russian- speaking community and has been under pressure from both Moscow and the West to pass amendments making it easier for members of that community to become citizens.
		As was the case in Latvia (where the final version of the amendments makes a similar provision for stateless children who were born after 21 August 1991, when the country regained independence), nationalist-inclined politicians opposed the bill on the grounds that such children would not be required to prove proficiency in the state language.
