Published online by Cambridge University Press:  13 February 2009

Extract

It is evident that the alarming development of the security and overall situation in Kosovo and Metohija since KFOR and UNMIK deployment, characterized by mass terror against the Serbian and other non-Albanian population which resulted in the killing of 447 Serbs and other nonAlbanians, abduction of 648 and the expulsion of over 330 000 of Serbs, Montenegrins, Muslim, Roma, Turks, Gorani, Croats and Egyptian and other non-Albanians, i.e. a massive ethnic cleansing has been brought about directly by an irresponsible and highly indolent attitude of KFOR and UNMIK, in particular the Special Representative towards their responsibilities under Security Council resolution 1244 (1999).
