Mr Jeremic said he was cautiously optimistic about gaining support for the case to be heard at the United Nations-accredited court, even though the US and most EU members had recognised the new state. Mr Jeremic urged the UN to consider a functional partition, allowing Kosovo's ethnic Serb minority to avoid dealing with the ethnic Albanian-dominated state. Neil Macdonald, Belgrade
