ANALYSIS/ 2 screen read
NYT: “It’s the very first time in 12 years that the pressure against the Serbs in the north has been so strong from both Pristina and the international community,” said Tatjana Lazarevic, 41, a native of Mitrovica who is a project manager at a nongovernment community development organization here. “And while at the same time, the support from Belgrade is weakening.”
"...the carrot of possible membership in the European Union is forcing a thaw in the frozen conflict between ethnic Serbs and Albanians in Kosovo."
