Original publisher: Washington : U.S. G.P.O., 2001. OCLC Number: (OCoLC)46399102 Subject: Democratization -- Bosnia and Hercegovina. Excerpt: ... 5 weaken further the already shaky Western European support for the Kosovar Albanians. All three leaders disclaimed any intention of issuing a unilateral declaration, even after a province-wide as-sembly is elected. Rugova said that although he favors formal international recognition for Kosovo at the earliest possible date, he does not want Kosovars to take actions that might block the es-tablishment of democratic and economic institutions by the West. Rugova expressed disappointment that Vojislav Kostunica, the new President of Yugoslavia, had not come up with any new ideas regarding Kosovo. He added that most Serbs no longer care much about Kosovo's fate and that it had essentially become a concern only of Belgrade intellectuals. Kostunica, Rugova emphasized, was much more concerned at the moment with Montenegro ( an analysis validated by my meeting in Belgrade with Kostunica ). Haradinaj, generally seen as the most radical of the three Kosovar leaders and the only one with a fluent command of English, went to great pains to emphasize his willingness to work with Kosovo Serbs as long as they are elected democratically. Of course, this would mean that the Kosovo Serbs would have to ' ' rec-ognize the new reality ' ' and participate in Kosovo's political life, something which most of them as yet have refused to do. Haradinaj echoed Rugova's assurance that he would not jeopardize inter-national support for Kosovo's eventual independence by any risky unilateral steps. He pointed out, though, that Kosovars still lack the basic symbols connecting them to their own society such as identification cards or drivers ' licenses. Finally, Haradinaj ex-pressed the opinion that UNMIK should increase the number of local police officers in the Kosovo Police Service from the current 2, 800 to about 8, 000.
