In an interview with the German daily the Münchner "Merkur", Rama says that possible conflicts in the Western Balkans would be stopped if the countries of the region join the EU. He cited Ireland as an example.
"Recent tensions in northern Kosovo cannot be compared to tensions from previous times. In fact, today former adversaries want to join the EU together. Military conflicts arise when countries are isolated, not in a community. Remember the positive developments brought about by Franco-German relations, or the case of Ireland. The risk of the EU bringing conflict into their homes is almost zero. Unification with Kosovo? Such mental games are much more likely outside the EU than inside it," Rama said.
The Republic Of Kosova plays a different tune nowadays!

What tune is that Bullwinkle? The one that you play as you wave goodbye to your relatives that migrate from Kosova permanently.
You are a very simple person that has no clues what it takes to unify Kosovo with Albania. If it ever happened it would economically cancel Albania for the next 100 years. But if you think otherwise let me know LOL.

Ivan.......
I'm assuming you are a Croat (and still a fascist by the sound of it)
or you are Albanian too ashamed to come out with the truth.
Anyhow, there is no visible border between France and Germany. Nor between Belgium and Holland.
Does that mean they are all one country? No, certainly not.
And you will never see Albania and Kosovo & Metohija becoming one country. Why? Because Kosovo & Metohija is Serbian. And Serbia will regain full control of its southern territory sooner or later. Serbia can wait...and wait.....
But its guaranteed it will happen one day. Meanwile Albanians can keep on living with no jobs, lots of poverty, mass migration (illegal migration), corruption, and still be an American puppet....lol....

We all know the US would back it and that is all that count. Just look at the way Serbia was tricked into moving their embassy to Jerusalem.
(Bob Nevano, 30 October 2021 17:25)
You must be one of stupid Americans that thinks the earth is flat. What's Albania waiting for? Father Christmas to make the announcement? When is this merger going to take place? this year or in 2021 or 2241?
When did Serbia move its embassy to Jerusalem again?

Furthermore, there are more Albanians living in the Western Balkans(WB)than any other of the WB and the average age is 27 years. Plenty of men for military service.
(Bennie, 31 October 2021 01:55)
Thats funny because the Albanian communities in Kosovo and Metohija have said that due to large migration the number of pupils in schools has reduced by 28% over the past ten years.
Another point if there are plenty of Albos with an average age of 27, where are they employed? What has opened up in Kosova that has created conditions where migration is not the best option?
Like the Americans who are stuck in a time warp of the 1990s your in pre disintegration of Yugoslavia days.

I thought Albania and Kosovo are united already. A friend of mine who visited Kosovo, and went to Albania from there, told me that it looks like there's no border.
(Ivan, 31 October 2021 16:18)
For all intents and purposes, Kosova and Albania are one country, but have two football teams, ha, ha, ha. There are no borders between them and all Kosovars are Albanian citizens. Soon, it will be announced that all Albanians will be citizens of Kosova. Furthermore, there are more Albanians living in the Western Balkans(WB)than any other of the WB and the average age is 27 years. Plenty of men for military service.
(Bennie, 31 October 2021 01:55)
a number does not constitute a soldier, its more cannon fodder than anything.
you cannot expect a person to jump in a race car and get in professional race.
those "27 year olds" are certainly swelling the ranks of Western European countries....
i really do enjoy how Albanians keep claiming they are apparently growing in population, and yet their fertility rate is almost like Serbia, they have the highest emigration rates in europe, and (on last count)Albania lost of 500k people (3.3 to 2.8)...
A study was done to compare population with cell phone users in the Balkans, a weighted average was found (by dividing the cell phone subscribers / population)... All Balkan regions were very similar except for Kosovo which apparently had 3x less mobile users than the rest of the region... it came to a conclusion that either kosovo had ALOT less users, or ALOT less people.... most likely the later considering how inexpensive cell phones were.

What would happen if both Albania and Kosova agreed to merge into a single country, nothing and everyone knows this especially Serbia. As a matter of fact, it would enhance their joining the EU. Yes, Serbia would throw a hissy fit but, they would do that anyway for some other perceived “provocation”. We all know the US would back it and that is all that count. Just look at the way Serbia was tricked into moving their embassy to Jerusalem.
