What is the current state of the refugee crisis?
I think “crisis” is an understatement. Macedonia, one of the key destinations for those fleeing the terror in Kosova, has shut its doors to further refugees and is forcing out large numbers of Kosovars to Albania and other nearby countries. The Macedonian government, concerned about perceived implications for “political stability” inside its own borders, has also instituted restrictions on foreign aid, bringing about a ludicrous situation where desperately needed food and medical supplies remain idle at the airport for days. The NATO powers are accommodating Macedonia’s demands and assisting the forced deportation of Kosovars. The refugees are literally being rounded up into trains and buses and planes with no choice, often separated from other family members and without knowledge of their destinations. Tens of thousands of refugees are currently unaccounted for. What is happening now could be characterised as the second phase of ethnic cleansing in Kosova, with direct NATO involvement
