Please : I am not making anymore "bloody politics" than people claiming that the situation is damn simple. I am a swiss citizen (not a Serb) and I really like all the people in Kosovo (KOA as well as KOS and the other ethnicities). It has nothing to do with taking side or whatever, but I am just saying that is is a complicated situation and that our map should try to reflect it.
