Kosovo observes fifth year of its independence from Serbia

Kosovo celebrated the fifth anniversary of the declaration of independence from Serbia, the very first time since 1998-99 with a parade of police and military, in the main square of Pristina, the main city. The landlocked nation is recognised as independent nation only by 96 nation (i.e. no UN nation) and Serbia is constantly on the claim it as its own territory. Its population comprises mainly of ethnic Albanians and Serbians.

Europe is currently mediating talks between the two former foes who fought a war regarding this in 1998-99. Recently both side were built with a skirmish at the border which caused problems for 30 NATO soldiers.Later both side agreed for any joint border management strategy.
