Patrick Moore, a long-time Balkans analyst, inadvertently answers Carl Bildt's fears of general chaos in the Balkans after in independent Kosovo. I have nothing against Bildt - in fact I have large respect for his intellect and most of his ideas. But I bring him up as a showcase of European diplomacy of the previous decade: the go it slowly and carefully policy that ultimately created much more suffering and hatred and broken relations than if Europe had acted decisively from early on.
