       “Milošević spent most of 1988 and 1989 focusing his politics on the “Kosovo problem”. In Kosovo, to seem non-contradictory, Milošević alleged that he supported the right of the Albanians to “self-determination”, but not to independence, as he claimed that Kosovo was an essential part of Serbia due to its history and its numerous churches and cultural relics. He also claimed that the KLA were a neo-Nazi organisation that sought an ethnically pure Kosovo, and he argued that independence would deliver Kosovo to their hands.“why does this sound an awful lot like the #debates in Spain over Catalonia and Euskadi :thinksphere:

       @xerz Every time I read or hear "due to its history" it translates inside my head into "due to the autocratic rule of feudal regimes".Because that's what history was, a dark age of no rights and no freedom for commoners.
