Students lead wide-ranging protests in Kosovo


Kosovo student protests

But some in Kosovo are hoping that last week's protests could be the start of something bigger. "You had people of all ages, including parents whose children who were not even in University of Pristina and who joined the protest because they are not satisfied," said Flutura Kusari from the Balkan Investigative Reporting Network, in Pristina. There is plenty to be unhappy with in Kosovo. International agencies put the national unemployment rate at between 35 and 45 percent. For young people, the figure is even higher - more than 65 percent of Kosovans aged 15 to 24 are without work.

Kosovo remains a hotbed of tension and turmoil. Again EU failure: no long term vision, both economically and politically, less social, a total disregard for the people and their aspirations ... time bombs at our borders...
