Serbian protestors help me go through barricades, feed me and get me drunk | entering Kosovo | vE 42

I enter Kosovo during a time of tensions between Serbia and Kosovo, and I end up having to go through the barricades of serbian protestors to be able to continue my journey in Kosovo. Unexpectedly, the serbian protestors help me go through their own barricades, and they invite me to drink rakija with them. A difficult day ends up being one of the most amazing days of my journey so far.

​@@KinoYves yes you should have seen they hart during the war. I don' know any serb , maybe they are realy fantastik, but if you were there during the war to see what they did to the albanians, to the bosniacs...it was a nightmare... Have you heard about srebrenice? Or Racak? Now the border is closed because the albanian goverment wants them to have the same treatment they reserve to albanians. Change the licence plate of their cars. Serbian goverment already does this. Till they do it to albanians, the albanians have to accept, but if you even think to do the same to serbs, then barricate and war is... its wonderful what you do, but it is not so easy to explain ballkans...l hope in future they will have a big hart and live the others in peace.

He will get and even more.Albanians litteraly erected Bil Clintons statue that tells ALOT.Also alot of so called neighbors consatntly and even RELIGIOUSLY are watching everyu single video that has Serbia title in it and then follow travelers videos who went to Serbia and then onc ethey enter Kosovo or Albania they instantly try to sorta outdone the experience teh traveler had in Serbia.There is a reason why many travelers eighetr if they go to Albania,Kosovo,Croatia,Bosnia FIRST they tend to avoid Serbia or just stay 1-2 days simply transit country and see stuff from the bus.Or if they come to Serbia first then otehrs then they always end up saying/reccomending to visit eigher Croatia or Albania and Kosovo. Same thing happens with oru players especialy when it comes to prominent ones such as Jokic and Djokovic where as soon as they make history they immedietly put/claim them as their own BUT as soo as for example Djokovic breaks racqet out of frustration or gets usual negative press THSOE SAME poele spit,attacks him and start saying oh typical uncivilized Serb,ogh typical animal and so on.

One thing you must now Kosovo and Metohija was always part of Serbia it is the place with special place in our hearts, i am born in Kosovska Mitrovica also i have multietnic background my mother is Serbian from an old family that gives a lot of high priest to the orthodox church my father who is from also Kosovo is naturalized Albanian and his family is also very old and highly respected family in Prizren, so i know both side of storie called Kosovo, not easy to understand but i am proud of my background as half Serbian half Albanian, i live in Belgrade Serbia but that land belong to Serbia but also belong to Albanian but first mistake is after world war 2 have make Titio he make that a provence of Serbia and allow too much albanina from albania came to Kosovo, second mistake was Slobodan Milosevic that pushed too much nationalism and that result war and interfering USA and EU adopted that teritory from Serbia and so called Kosovo is not fully recognized because USA wanted that part of territory have a military base politcs man bullshit but you must know that people in Balkans region is hospitable evryvare, have a good and happy trip.

[@KinoYves]

I definitely agree with your explanation of the situation. It is very sad, because Serbs and Albanians had been able to live together in Kosovo for hundreds of years, and now it's not the case anymore... and in the end, most of the Serbs had to flee...

[@albinh.3149]

@@KinoYves His story is full of errors/lies. The main one being: He talks about "Tito bringing Albanians to Kosovo", while Kosovo was already Albanian majority prior to serb annexation in 1913.

[@frostflower5555]

That is why there is a love-hate relationship with Tito. In making Yugoslavia strong, he ruined the south for the Serbs. I also know some Serbian women who married Albanians a long time ago, I guess not enough Serbian men in Kosovo?lol I guess their kids and grandkids "became" Albanians.

Kosovo has always been popolated by albanianas. In the ancient times they were called Dardans. In the middle age they were still albanians. Kosovo has been taken by force from Albania. The kosovars, were there when the indipendence of Albania was proclamed. Kosovars just like other albanians from other regions of albania signed it. The serbian propaganda says it it the hart of the serbian civilization...it is not true...my grandfather was prom peja. He escaped from serbian genocide in the 1920...they were an ancient albanian family ...and i was born in albania not in peje. These are facks...we lived it. Serbs never lived this thing.
