Why are serbs protesting?

Question

I don't know anything about that area of the world so I was wondering if anyone knows why the Serbs are protesting the acknowledgment of Kosovo? Or are they protesting that?

Answer 1

Serbian protes because someone Stolen their land (Kovoso Albanian), and UN backup them under name of Human right.

So Kovoso said "help... help.... someone came and took our homeland".

What you can do if you were in this case?

Answer 2

For the same reason the U.S. would be protesting if Florida got independence from the United States and France said how nice that was for an idea.

Answer 3

Independence, can you believe that?

Answer 4

Right...if the United States of America treated Florida the same way that Serbia treats Kosovo, then I would expect the Floridians to be pretty upset and demanding independance too.

Answer 5

I agree with Robert J,the U.S. would also be protesting if Florida got independence from the United States.Now I don't know where you are from,but imagine that somebody else came in your country and wanted to steal a part of it.Would

you just let them take it,or would you be protesting??I don't understand that some countries support the acknowledgment of Kosovo.Albanian's have their own country,they have no right to steal a part of another country

Answer 6

kosovo was one of the strongholds and capitals of serbia for centuries. was under turkish rule for a time where the introduction of albanians, who are primarily muslim, upset the

population distribution ever since. the serbs spent their time exterminating the croats and being exterminated by the croats in the 90's, have lost control of kosovo which has been under u.n. control since the 90's. needless to say. they are not happy.

Answer 7

The Serbs are against Kosovo being an independent state because they want Serbia to be one nation.

Check out the Kosovo War (1996-1999)

Answer 8

One of their provinces, Kosovo, has declared itself independent and the US is recognizing it, even though it will really remain under UN control.  Kosovo is 90% Moslem.  Serbs are 90% Orthodox Christian. write in Cyrillic and are pro-Russian,

Croats write in Roman alphabet and are Catholic and pro-Western and Serbs and Croats are worst enemies, so an independent Islamic nation in the middle of their country bothers the Serbs and Russians immensely and pleases the Croats and President Bush.

Now watch the Russians call for an independent Iranian Kurdistan to anger the Iraqis and Turks and us.

Why does the US support Islamic separatism in the Balkans, or Chechnya or Georgia?  Because politics has nothing to do with ideology.  It's about who is going to help you out and the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
