Any compromise with Milošević is tragic for the people of Kosovo and Western democracy BONN- Kosovo leader Hashim Thaçi said on Monday in a meeting with a high-level international delegation that the Kosovar people needed the help and support of the assisting partners in order to achieve a successful process for peace and democracy. However, for this reason, he is convinced that all efforts to force Kosovo into an unacceptable agreement with the Yugoslav president will fail. “What some gloomy efforts are doing, which they are paying for, in war are wrong for a solution to such a conflict,” notes the former UÇK leader at the end. However, to achieve a more acceptable solution, the international community must resist the pressure to persuade Kosovo to sign an agreement without any consultation with the people at large and with the leaders of all the wings of the war. The firm stance, he said, must remain unchanged in the face of Milošević, and he added that if everything were not reversed in time, an agreement could end with Kosovo being lost from its history.
