Syndicate: Albanians blocking Rambouillet talks

ALBANIANS BLOCKING RAMBOUILLET TALKS 

Serbian state delegation accepted to participate in
Rambouillet talks on a peaceful settlement for Kosovo problems
showing its willingness to solve the crisis by peaceful and
political means.  
The delegation accepted the Contact Group's document with ten
principles for the Rambouillet talks. Serbian delegation insisted
that, as first step,  both sides in talks sign those ten principles,as
the basis for further negotiations about Kosovo's autonomy. Those
principals are giving the guarantee for the sovereignty and territorial
integrity of Serbia and Yugoslavia, strongly opposing
the concept of independence for Kosovo as republic.  
Also, Serbian state delegation asked to sit at the same
conference table with the ethnic Albanian delegation, in order to
discuss  the Kosovo problem directly with them.  
But the ethnic Albanian delegation at Rambouillet refused to sign
the ten principles from the Contact Group's document, and is refusing 
to sit down at the same conference table with the Serbian
state delegation. The Contact Group and its mediators are also
responsible for that. 
In the same time, almost every day in Kosovo there are terroris 
attacks, bomb explosions, kidnappings, executions of Serb
civilians or Albanians that are loyal to Yugoslav and Serbian
state, done by the illegal so-called Kosovo Liberation Army.  

Now it should be clear to everyone who is for peaceful and
political solution of the Kosovo problems, and who is provoking
violence and disorder. From the beginning of Kosovo crisis the main
problem are not the human rights of ethnic Albanians, which are same for
all 26 other ethnic communities living in Serbia at the moment, but
their separatism and wish for independent state.
  
Now it is on Contact Group and international community to force
Albanian separatists to sit down with Serbian state
representatives and accept principles of the Contact Group
document, which is the basis for a possible peaceful agreement.  
The pressures of  NATO and USA with threats of military
interventions in Serbia, besides their irregularity and unjustness,
are supporting Albanian separatists noncooperativness.
