This is the Serbian academic and professor Dusan Teodorovic. Regarding Kosova, he states the following:
Until 1912, Kosova was under Ottoman occupation. Then, in 1912, the serbian and montenegrin armies occupied it through war. And we lost it in war!
But because of our national pride, it is difficult for us to admit this, yet these are the facts!
King Alexander, Josip Broz Tito, Slobodan Milosevic, Kostunica, Dindic, and all the way to Aleksandar Vucic, all of them have tried.
All of them have tried to solve the Kosova issue for more than 80 years, but they failed! For one simple reason: the Albanians of Kosova do not want to live with us!
Think of it like a marriage where one side does not want to stay and leaves, while we keep them by force.
They don't want to! And how do we imagine keeping them by force now? With war? Well, we tried with war too. Besides that, the largest NATO base, camp Bondsteel, is located in Kosova.
All the countries surrounding us are in NATO. So what are we supposed to do now, fight against them?
We must be reasonable, even though I belong to those who are in the minority, but this is how I see reality.
Kosovo nije Srbija od 1999. godine. Izgubio ga je Slobodan Milošević pošto je nakon genocida nad Bošnjacima u Srebrenici pokušao da sprovede još jedan genocid nad kosovskim Albancima. Civilizovani svet ga je u tome sprečio. Zato kad čujem da mi neko priča da je "Kosovo Srbija" jer tako "piše u ustavu" (Koštuničinom!), pred očima mi se ukaže Mica Lažljivica.
By the time Milosevic’s forces began their campaign in Kosovo, it was his fourth war in less than nine years. If NATO made a major mistake in 1999, it was only that it did not strike the Milosevic regime directly already in 1991 or 1992.
