Jessen-Petersen stays true to his beliefs until the end. In other words, they were really his beliefs, rather than some easy route to pacify the extremists and give himself an easier time on the job.

America will negotiate how much EU will pay Serbia to give up Kosovo. Ok, the link doesn't say that, but it's pretty much the same thing. The funny things is that a price being paid in exchange for indepdendence was being circulated even back in 1998. Back then it would be Kosovo that would pay a $2 billion figure, from what I can remember. The deal stands on shaky moral grounds. It's like some NGOs collecting money to pay up slave masters in some corners of Africa today. Other bargaining chips are war criminals, for which Serbia could get good money but has to ask for Hague to let them alone instead. Sad for them! Serbia could also ask for Kosovo to sign an agreement on not suing them over the war reperations.

110 of the the "last" bodies discovered in Serbia have been returned to Kosovo seven years after they were murdered. Serbia says that's it, but there are more than 2,000 Albanians and Serbs still missing. It should be noted that Serbia has been democratic for most of this time but it has taken them a painfully long time to act.
