/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The decision on Kosovo status should be satisfactory
both for ethnic Albanians and official Belgrade, German Chancellor
Angela Merkel told ZDF. At that she highlighted the wish of Kosovo
people for independence. "However, this should not tense the domestic
situation in Serbia and weaken democracy," Merkel said.
Formally, Kosovo is a part of Serbia, however, since 1999 (after the
completion of NATO military operation) the region has been ruled by
the UN administration.
Albanians, forming 90% of Kosovo population, hope for complete
independence from Serbia via talks. Belgrade intends to maintain
control and states readiness to grant maximal degree of autonomy to
Kosovo, reports rbcnews.com.
