The long road to reconciliation in Kosovo
focus |
PRISTINA — Kosovo Albanians, their confidence boosted by a UN court opinion backing independence, want to reach out to the territory’s Serb minority but ingrained distrust is hampering efforts at reconciliation.
“Without reconciliation... we will not be able to improve our lives as citizens and people who want clear perspectives for themselves and their children,” said Veton Nurkollari, the Kosovo Albanian organizer of Doku Fest, an international documentary film festival, aiming to use culture to bridge differences.
“There is a need for reconciliation, an urgency even,” he told AFP.
