Do you support the decentralization of Kosovo?
 

Verbatim

I support the independence of Kosovo and its democratic process towards full sovereignty. Kosovo’s independence is a unique situation resulting from the irreparable rupture Slobodan Milosevic’s actions caused; it is in no way a precedent for anyone else in the region or around the world. 

 - Barack Obama, President of the United States of America
