Kosovo papers report that the U.S., Great Britain and France have expressed great reservations over the American Richard Wilcox being appointed UNMIK deputy chief.
The United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon cannot appoint an American in the post of PDSRSG without getting the green light from Washington.
The papers note that Wilcox is currently head of the UN Office in Belgrade and his friends from the Department for Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO) have proposed him to Ban Ki-moon several days ago.
“U.S. diplomats have told the Secretary-General that they are against Wilcox’s appointment at the post of PDSRSG,” unnamed Western diplomats told the paper. They affirmed that "the British and the French are also against him."

According to the paper, in April and May, Wilcox, authorized by the DPKO, held confidential talks with Serbian Ministers Vuk Jeremiq and Sllobodan Samarxhiq about the administration of areas inhabited mainly by Serbs in Kosovo. “The U.S. and its Western allies were never satisfied with the talks,” added the sources.

... :-) After all, you can also tell that anti-Albanian propaganda was translated from Serbian when they tell you about the city of "Kuks" and "Redzepi, a former member of the OVK terorist organization". |

... In Albanian, the Serbian "Slobodan" would be "Sllobodan". And in English "Vuk Jeremiq and Slobodan Samarxhiq" would be "Vuk Jeremić and Slobodan Samardžić". Why ape Serbian pseudo-nationalism and disown those "normal" Serbs --among the 40 percent who, at the time of Đinđić's assassination, were willing to let Kosovo go, who write in good, plain Latin script, just like the Albanians do? |
