Serb PM-elect warns Kosovo against unilateral independence

 There is good news from Serbia. A government has been put into place with the major reigns of power in the hands of the more mellow President Tadic's party. Tadic has repeatedly ruled out a violent response to an independent Kosovo.

Kostunica warned again about independence, but now that he doesn't control the army and the secret services, chances for a peaceful transition are better. Kostunica will still control the police, an institution that has been harassing Albanians that live in the Presheva Valley on the Serbia-Kosovo border, and tradionally an institution of terror. But hey, we're used to keeping our expectations low.
