Kosovo and the Struggle for the Soul of Europe

Andrei Dinu

Europolity – Continuity and Change in European Governance - Old Series, 2008, vol. 2, issue 2, 23-29

Abstract: Kosovo is now placed near Europe’s centre, because here the interests of the EU, of the members states, of the partner and opponent from East, Russia intersect, here a battle field where the European key principles are tested was improvised and the strength of the new European commitment in ensuring pace and stability is evaluated. We can talk about the right of self-government of a nation or of an ethnic nation. The mission of The United Nations in Kosovo will continue to stay on the region affairs management for a period of transition of 120 days, and at the end of this period the EU will assume full control of the stabilizing and reconstruction mission.
