Am Südbalkan flammt wieder Gewalt auf. Historiker und Südost-Europa-Spezialist Florian Bieber weiß über die historisch gewachsenen Umstände im Kosovo gut Bescheid. In der Online-Ausgabe der Washington Post äußert sich der Wissenschaftler zu den Unruhen.

Der Kosovo kommt nicht zur Ruhe. Mehr als zwei Dutzend NATO-Soldaten wurden bei Auseinandersetzungen mit serbischen Demonstranten in dieser Woche verletzt. Dies führte dazu, dass der NATO-Generalsekretär Jens Stoltenberg die Entsendung von zusätzlichen 700 Soldaten zur Aufrechterhaltung des Friedens in einer Region mit einer belasteten Geschichte ethnischer Konflikte ankündigte. Österreich schickt weitere KFOR-Soldaten und stärkt den Truppenschutz. 

Die Gewalt entflammte, als neu gewählte, ethnisch-albanische Bürgermeister in serbisch geprägten Gebieten im Norden Kosovos ihr Amt antraten. Die Serben, die die im April abgehaltenen Wahlen boykottiert hatten, waren darüber verärgert. Der Uni-Graz-Historiker und Balkan-Kenner Florian Bieber klärt über die historische Genese des Konflikts in der Washington Post auf.

30 years after Srebrenica: Heike Karge supports forces for reconciliation

This year marks the thirtieth anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre in Bosnia. To this day, Serbia and the Republika Srpska refuse to characterise the killing of more than 8,000 Bosnian Muslims as genocide. Those in power lack the will to come to terms with the atrocities. There is hope from strong forces in civil society who want to make a process of reconciliation possible by documenting war crimes across national and ethnic boundaries. Heike Karge, Professor of Southeast European History at the University of Graz, supports them in joint research projects, among other things.
