Directions
Almost two months after the violence of March 2004—in which 19 people lost their lives, nearly 1,000 were injured, over hundreds of homes were destroyed, more than 4,500 displaced and dozens of churches, monasteries, mosques, and public buildings damaged—serious questions remain in both Kosovo and Serbia. What were the underlying causes of the violence? Have these been addressed in a comprehensive and timely manner? What impact has the violence had on the domestic political situation in both Kosovo and Serbia?
On May 20 the Institute's Balkans Working Group will sponsor a special public meeting on "Kosovo & Serbia: What Now?" Moderated by Institute senior fellow Albert Cevallos, the session will explore issues such as:
- What will become of the "Standards Before Status"
process?
- What is the future of relations between Kosovo and
Serbia?
- What are the implications for an international community distracted by peacekeeping operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere?
Speakers
- Alex Anderson
Director, Kosovo Project, International Crisis Group
- James Lyon
Director, Serbia Project, International Crisis Group
Moderator
- Albert Cevallos
Senior Fellow, U.S. Institute of Peace
