It looks very much as Washington is fomenting a new conflict, this time in Macedonia, to further its geopolitical intersts

NATO Uses Clashes in Macedonia to Undermine Russia's Gas Pipeline Project
Ethnic
Albanians involved in recent violent clashes in the northern
Macedonian city of Kumanovo were used by Washington to threaten
construction plans for Russia's Turkish Stream gas pipeline, a
Serbian political scientist claimed.

MOSCOW
(Sputnik) — On May 9, Macedonia witnessed violent clashes between
police and an armed group in Kumanovo, a city bordering Serbia and
Kosovo, which claimed the lives of eight Macedonian security officers
and 14 gunmen.
According
to the Macedonian Interior Ministry, the group was led by five former
members of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA).
"Albanians
are used to hinder [the implementation of] the Turkish Stream
[project] and as a US method of putting pressure on Europe by
fomenting a new conflict in the Balkans," Dusan Prorokovic told
Sputnik Tuesday.
According
to Prorokovic, renewed Albanian insurgency in Kumanovo is likely to
be orchestrated by the United States and its NATO allies to derail
Moscow's pipeline plans.
The
new pipeline is expected to pass through Turkey to a gas hub on the
Turkish-Greek border for further distribution to consumers in
southern Europe.
Kumanovo
was an epicenter of fighting between Albanian rebels, who originated
from Kosovo, and government forces in 2001.
In
April, a group of some 40 gunmen, reportedly linked to the KLA, took
over a police station in the northern Macedonian village of Gosince.
The armed men called for the establishment of an Albanian state.
About
a quarter of Macedonia's two-million population is made up of ethnic
Albanians. Relations between Macedonians and the Albanian minority
soured after the government suppressed Albanian insurgency in Tetovo,
near the border with Kosovo in 2001.

Meltdown: Riots ensue after alleged police cover up

Special
Report on the escalating situation in Macedonia
11
May, 2015
by
“S.P.”
Before,
I write anything else, I would first call on you not to turn this
into another “it’s not Macedonia – it’s FRYOM” thing. This
feud about a name should be the last of your worries now, whether you
are a Greek or Macedonian. So, everybody calm down. I’m just used
to name Macedonia and I have no personal opinion on that issue.
It
started with reports of sightings of unknown group of some 50 armed
men around Kumanovo. Shortly after Macedonian agency INA reported
that there are police forces present in the area.
The
exchange of fire lasted throughout the night and the whole 9th of
May. Assault rifles, snipers, grenades as reported were some of
weapons used by the said armed group. It simmered down a little
through the night and then continued on 10th again. As I type this on
10th in the evening reports are still coming, and often conflicting
ones. First a report that says law enforcement upper handed the
attackers, then after reports on fighting that continues. So, I’d
take all this with a grain of salt.
Perpetrators
are still an ‘unknown group’ according to most reports. Others
report on UCK (KLA), some say it’s the Guard of Republic of
Ilirida, some say a National Liberation Army. Some say an Albanian
group from Kosovo, some say from Serbia…
While
media outlets in the region were very reluctant to say who are the
perpetrators, Albanians in Vienna were little less shy, they gathered
in front of Macedonian embassy and chanted: “UCK, UCK” among
other things… see here:
(notice
the ever-present USA flag too….)
But
let’s first establish this – regardless of which one of these
groups (or more of them) are responsible – Without Americans giving
an ‘OK’ no Albanian armed group would lift a finger. This is
absolutely crucial. They never did nor ever will act independently of
US command.
Sputnik
reports on 8 police officers and 14 gunmen killed, and close to 40
people injured in clashes. This matches the reports from other
outlets from the region.
So
let’s first look in little more detail what happened in Macedonia
before ‘zooming out’ to get a bigger picture and look at the
background of these events.
More
detailed report on one web portal, by the hour (from May 10th):
I
will translate some of the points from the long article below.
Helicopters
and UAVs in the air above the conflict zone, according to Macedonian
media
12:15
– Clearing of area in progress, sniper fire is heard
13:35
death toll rose to eight police officers, more than 30 injured
In
Kumanovo, sporadic gunshots are heard since morning; burned houses;
four police officers are wounded. Number of killed police officers
has risen to eight. Day of mourning proclaimed in Macedonia.
14:18
the arrested terrorists were arrested earlier today at the
investigative judge, as reported by regional TV N1
14:25
– Albanian politician: Time for unification of Albanians
Albanian
politician, leader of the List for natural (Greater) Albania, Koco
Danaj, claims that for “war in Kumanovo,” in settlements
inhabited by Albanians, the standing government is to blame;
considers that the time has come for the unification of Albanians.
14:43
– Police destroyed a car bomb in informal settlements
Macedonian
police during anti-terrorist action in Kumanovo destroyed a car bomb,
which was full of explosives, Macedonian media reported, citing
sources from the security services.
15:45
– Kotevskiin: The arrested terrorist leaders from Kosovo
Plan
of armed terrorist group was an attack on several government and
civilian targets, admitted some of arrested individuals, confirmed a
spokesman for the Macedonian Interior Ministry Ivo Kotevski.
Kotevski
confirmed that the police action eliminated one of the most dangerous
terrorist groups in the Balkans, reports portal mkd.mk.
17:51
– identified terrorist leaders
Interior
Ministry spokesman Ivo Kotevski said at a press conference that the
police action, which began on Saturday morning is now completed; a
terrorist group which numbered more than 40 people, eliminated and
neutralized.
The
leaders of this group were, according to him, the notorious Muhammad
Krasniqi called ‘commander of Malisheva’, Mirsad Ndrecaj
‘Commander of Nato’, Sami Uksini ‘Commander Sokoli’, Beg
Rizaj alias ‘Commander Begu’ and Dene Shehu alias ‘Juniku’.
Kotevski
said that they are Albanians from Kosovo and are associated with the
formation of numerous terrorist and extremist groups in the region,
that is, he said, are registered as founders of paramilitary
structures.
19:19
– Leaders of terrorists were bodyguards Ahmeti and Haradinaj
The
leaders of the terrorist group broken Dene Shehu and Beg Rizaj were
bodyguards of leaders of the ruling Macedonian party Democratic Union
for Integration, Ali Ahmeti and Hague indictee Ramush Haradinaj,
transmitted Macedonian media.
Albanian
media report that the Shehu as a member of the KLA took part in the
fighting in Kosovo in 1999 and Macedonia in 2001, after which he was
a bodyguard of Ahmeti, and was often seen with other officials of the
party.
Beg
Rizaj, was a member of the KLA in areo of Dukađinina in Kosovo, led
by Ramush Haradinaj. After the war in Kosovo, he was a bodyguard of
Haradinaj.
Some
footage from the area (9-10th of May):
Meanwhile,
this is circling on Social Media and some news sites:
“Our
editorial statement that reached us, send Hamdi Ndrecaj commander
known as Panther. Here is a statement as follows:
APPEAL:
Guerrilla Republic of Illyrida
Seeing
increased tensions of the fascist monster state of FYROM, I’m
seeking urgent that all comrades, and all Albanians who serve the
state apparatus of the Slavo-Macedonians, quickly take off the
uniforms of this country and fascist uniform slavomakedonski police
camera that the blood of our sons washes the streets of our ethnic
occupied territories.
So
please for the last time, to return to the right path, the path that
is happiness (the hope) of the Albanian people and not be part of the
monstrous state apparatus. We are obliged to tell you that we don’t
want killing of brothers in any form, even though that is what
someone wants.
If
you do not want to join us in our just cause, then we plead that you
do get in our way, the revolution will begin soon, and that is why
this is our last address, as all who wear the uniform of the
slav.maked.policija army and their weapons will have treat like
they’re the slavomakedonci (police, military)
Guard
of the Republic of Illyrida, GRI
Other
interesting thing – Some 700 hundred Albanian refugees already
crossed border with Serbia fleeing from conflict. I say interesting,
because they were equally close to Kosovo and could also choose
motherland Albania. They obviously considered Serbia to be ‘the
best option’.
Also,
an appeal from terrorist UCK (known as KLA in the West) appeared in
Albanian media (Telegrafi.com):
“This
scenario is directed against the Albanian people, and this is
intimidating introduction to the ethnic cleansing of Albanians and
the expulsion of people from homes. We invite barbarian formations to
withdraw from Kumanovo and leave peaceful citizens alone. Albanians
are accustomed to this kind of scenarios by Serbo-slavic barbarians.”
– said in a statement of the KLA from this morning as transfer
Albanian media.
“Failure
to comply with the conclusions of the Ohrid agreement in 2001 forced
the Albanians to defend themselves. We express our condolences to the
families of Albanians who were killed, and at the same time we call
for caution, because we need to be prepared for all scenarios that
are prepared by Slovenian occupators” – concludes the statement.
In
the meantime, ‘the Guard of Republic of Illirida’ and NLA made
another announcement (as reported by several online
Albanian/Macedonian and Serbian outlets):
In
the proclamation that the “Guard” published, all Albanian
territories and the international community were informed that all
Albanian groups and military units of the National Liberation Army
are starting to act as one body, for the establishment of the
Republic ILIRIDA.
This
group has asked
the international community to
force Macedonia and her armed forces to stop using military
helicopters against the NLA. (I
couldn’t make this up even if I tried)
– Otherwise,
we will be forced to take proportional measures, which are in strict
violation of international conventions of war – said NLA.
Albanians
have pointed out that their aim is to create a so-called Republic of
ILIRIDA.
– If
the leadership of Macedonia, as a counterfeit creation, continues to
act repressively with it’s state apparatus, we are ready to brake
apart, if necessary, not only Macedonia, but also the whole of the
Balkans inhabited by Albanians, because the international factor
leaves us no other choice – said in a statement she signed
commander Hamdi Ndrecaj. (guy on the
pics:
Serbian
special police forces of “Жандармерија” as well as
anti-terrorist unit “ПТЈ” were sent
into border region near Macedonia on 9th as a precaution if some of
the insurgents try to cross the border.
Now
another interesting news. Yesterday on 9th of May this showed up:
“German
citizen, was arrested at the border crossing Batrovci, when the
police in his car brand “Passat” found 10 packages of 100 pieces
of electronic detonators for explosives.”
(this
is a border crossing between Serbia and Croatia). He was entering
Serbia. However, still no follow-up on this.
So,
now that we’ve seen what is taking place in Macedonia, I would go
back to some previous events that took place there and put it all
into context. This, of course, is not an isolated or spontaneous
event, just like the ‘colored revolution’ taking place there at
the moment isn’t spontaneous.
All
Albanian leaders mentioned by name in these reports were at some
point connected to the KLA. Whether this was in 2001 conflict in
Macedonia and south of Serbia, ‘98/’99 war on Kosovo or any of
separate attacks afterwards, they were connected to some of these.
KLA
is, of course, another bastard child of the American Empire. And has,
just like her other children several names and sub-groups. (i.e.
Al-qaeda, ISIS, FSA, Boko Haram and so on…) So, we have KLA (UCK),
some Guard of so called Republic of Ilirida, then some Liberation
Army. All in fact are one and the same, same leaders, same goals, and
with one main patron – the USA.
They
are USA’s ‘wild card’ in the Balkans, an ‘Ace from the
sleeve’. America holds this entire area in the state of frozen
conflict. With the snap of the fingers this can become an all out war
all over again. Bosnia, Southern Serbia/Kosovo and Metohija,
Macedonia, Montenegro… any area – you name it, and they have it
ready to blow.
Now
in this possible new conflict in Macedonia (with a strong possibility
of spreading into Serbia, if needed be) there are roughly speaking,
three ‘sides’ – Albanian, Serbian and Macedonian. Neither of
three can ‘win’, there can only be losers. We will now walk the
path that the USA put in front of us and hope not to step on a mine.
Or if we do, then hope we step on as little mines as possible.
There
are already appeals coming from the ‘international community’
saying that there must be an end to the violence. Now, that’s very
noble indeed, but it’s only a shame these appeals are arriving at
the wrong address. EU should try appealing to Washington, if they are
really sincere in wanting to stop this.
So,
this conflict it totally out of hands of either of the governments of
the countries in region. Each of them has a puppet government in
place and the ‘merry crew’ that started shooting few days ago,
works for the same boss as those governments. In other words, the
conflict will grow depending on how much USA wants it to grow. Is the
goal just stopping the possible Turk stream? Is it directed at
destabilizing the region and thus giving a warning to all parties
involved – Macedonians to stop dreaming of deals that do not have
the Empire’s blessing and for Serbia to stop flirting with Russia?
Or to explain the Greeks that your tourist season can really suck if
you have a war next to your border. Who would dare fly there? Nobody
wants another MH17. Was this a ‘backup Ukraine’ if fighting there
slows down too much? Or is this just a way the Empire says ‘Happy
Victory Day!’
Or
is the whole deal just a series of false flag attacks directed by the
current gov.? This is a popular theory in Macedonia, spread mostly by
the opposition. The only problem is – no one of Macedonians
controls the KLA, USA does. And USA already picked their new
government – and it’s not the current one.
Now
don’t mistake this for some kind of a supportive statement aimed at
current government of FRYOM. Gruevski is, by all accounts very
corrupt and with ton of affairs/scandals in his belt – very wrong
man to head your government. But like the armed conflict that will
have no winner, same can be said for current political struggle
there. We have one set of stooges trying to replace other set of
stooges. A corrupt puppet of the West, Gruevski, getting replaced by
the slimy puppet of the West, Zaev. The new stooge might even be
worse. Why? Well, common sense tells you that if USA is using CIA
front groups to install a new puppet in place of their old puppet,
that means that they expect the new one to be even more servile and
obedient. USA definitely counts on having something to gain from
installing a new toy politician there. For the common citizen of
Macedonia, however, there is nothing to gain from this ‘change’.
Example of this from Ukraine – who would you like to have as head
of the government: Poroshenko, Turcinov or Yatsenuk. Awesome choices,
right!?
Just
listening to Zaev speaking you’ll hear how hollow it all sounds.
Same BS like when Porosenko was promising prosperity to Ukrainian
masses. But add to it a massive support from western owned media –
and voilà, we have a winner. Not only that, but you will also bring
sheeple out on the streets and have them grabbing each other’s
throats, fighting for ‘their champion’.
So,
it’ll be good to ‘tune your antennas’ when receiving the
coverage of this crisis from western media as ‘tone’ of it can
tell a lot about the stance that State Department & Co. will take
on it. Even if it doesn’t mention State Dept. at all.
When
you saw, after an hour of downing of MH17 , headlines that said
>>PUTIN’S MISSILE!!<<, you didn’t really have to wait
for separate, official statements of NATO governments. If CNN starts
reporting about the ‘use of excessive force on freedom loving,
democracy-admiring peaceful citizens, you’re in for a bad period
Macedonia. And if you see a headline like this:
then
you’re really screwed.
Albanian
media, like the outlet ‘Koha Ditore’, already started playing the
‘Milosevic card’ on Gruevski, just like they played ‘Hitler
card’ on Milosevic (which was kinda stupid, as Hitler actually
supported the greater Albania project). Now, there was a similar
‘show of force’ by the KLA just recently (of which I will write
further down in this post) where ~50 armed men took a border post at
the village of Gosice. Only that time there were no victims, other
than a few beaten-up police officers. Many called that event a false
flag. Claiming that the current government organized it in order to
deflect attention from themselves and to bring dissent into
Macedonian and Albanian public. To make them direct their discontent
toward each other, instead at government. And I have to agree that it
had many symptoms of a false flag op. Maybe it was a ‘double false
flag’ made by the accusers so they can accuse the accused (some of
you are probably thinking of the ‘keanu reevs meme’ right now,
but let’s remain serious for a moment). Whatever the case was back
then, now it serves to ‘prove that all this is a set up’.
And
now it gets interesting. Now the opposition blames every action of
the armed groups on the current government!
And
it looks like the good ol’ US of A took some notes while watching
those polite green men in Crimea in action. Spreading dis-info and
confusion and contradicting information to paralyze everyone trying
to respond. Meanwhile some real work is getting done on the ground.
So this “it’s all an act”, serves as some kind of anesthesia –
‘don’t worry everyone, it’s just the current gov. trying
desperately to stay in power’. The same mantra is repeated by some
outlets on the Serbian side too – ‘hey no need to secure the
border, it’s just an act by the government’. It’ll all simmer
down once all these affairs and scandals are forgotten. But by
looking at who are the most vocal proponents of this ‘it’s all
nothing’ mantra, you will trace them back to CIA and Soros funded
front groups, also.
Now,
take a step back and have a look at who’s running the show here. We
have KLA (run exclusively by the USA), mass media, run by the USA,
NGOs (USAID, NED, Freedom House, Open Society Foundation….) again
from the same source. And then we have two sides ‘fighting for
power’ – both USA puppets along with the current governments in
the region (Serbia, Albania).
So,
some foul play is definitely taking place, and all this might really
be some theatrics. But NOT directed by one of the sides trying to
take power in Macedonia, but by the USA.
But
these tensions were present almost without interuptions for the past
15+ years. And every month or so a smaller incident would take place,
just to not let the ‘frozen conflict’ project ‘melt away’.
About
the origins of KLA, their leaders, ties with USA and NATO there are
many articles written. Without even trying hard you can find all the
information needed online. So, I’ll just focus on recent incidents
tied to one that just happened.
As
reported by KM Neswpapers last month:
“KLA
negotiates in Brussels, kills in Macedonia”
(http://www.kmnovine.com/2015/04/t_21.html )
“Macedonian
police reported that about 40 well-armed and masked men with insignia
of the terrorist KLA, on the night between Monday and Tuesday,
stormed the border post of “Gošince” on the border between
Macedonia and Kosovo and Metohija. Then they tied up and beaten the
police officers while taking it all on camera.
They
captured four policemen, said Assistant Minister of Interior Ivo
Kotevski.
Through
an interpreter who spoke bad Macedonian, lider of the group addressed
the policemen with words – “we are the KLA, nor Ahmeti nor
Gruevski can save you. We want our country and we do not want any of
Ohrid negotiations,” said Kotevski.
According
to the first accounts and operational information a terrorist group
in Macedonia came from Kosovo.
However,
right after, followed the attacks by pro-Western parties, various
NGOs and members of the illegal, paramilitary movement of shqiptar
separatists who claim to want peace. That same vocabulary which they
used to hide their true intentions before the start of massive
terrorist attacks on Serbian police, civilians and military. So did a
former member of the so-called. “National Liberation Army” (NLA)
Abedin Zimberi, who lives in Lipkovski region, say that ‘in this
area there are no armed persons’, announced american Radio Free
Europe in Macedonian language.”
Anyway,
border Post Gošince located above Kumanovo, on the border with
Kosovo is in the immediate vicinity ofthe post Tanusevci, and those
were two points which were attacked first in 2001, when members of
the KLA in the area declared free territory.
RT gave just a short mention in their News Line. Here, a screenshot:
UCK/KLA
also took responsiliblty for several attacks that took place in
December of 2014. on police stations and government building.
*For
readers from exYugoslavia (picture has text in Serbian)– a small
chronoligy of the conflicts in
Macedonia http://srbin.info/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/46.jpg
This
exact course of events was predicted at the beginning of 2015.
Example from ‘Politika’ (one of the oldest newspapers in the
region with first publication in January of 1904.) which had Op-ed by
Misha Djurkovich, named “Destabilization of Macedonia”
( http://www.politika.rs/pogledi/Missa-Djurkovich/Destabilizacija-Makedonije.sr.html )
on 13th Feb 2015.
“Zaev
and a new team of associates chose different methods of struggle
against Gruevski. Last year’s elections for parliament and
president they did not acknowledge and up until today MPs of the
party are boycotting the parliament.
They turned to primarily non-parliamentary methods and encouragement of civil protests. During the last year, instead of political struggle, Macedonia was marked by various forms of social and civil protests.”
They turned to primarily non-parliamentary methods and encouragement of civil protests. During the last year, instead of political struggle, Macedonia was marked by various forms of social and civil protests.”
“SDSM
began to announce the “media bomb” four months ago. While the
public is waiting, Zaev, with some material secretly went to see the
Prime Minister trying to blackmail him to form joint caretaker
government and organize new elections.
Two weeks ago, Gruevski came out in public with this information. Sitel Television broadcasted the footage that show Zaev claiming that he received the compromising material from members of the foreign service of some “non-adjacent state”, and the police subsequently arrested Zoran Verushevski, former head of the Macedonian authorities, his wife and another person from Strumica.
Against all of them, and Zaev, whose passport was taken away, the procedure for endangering the constitutional order and a threat to the authorities was initiated. In public this was intensified by the story of the “coup” that is being prepared with the help of foreign powers.”

“This
case received wider international dimension. Western embassies and
senior EU officials have reacted very upset and asked for some kind
of arbitration in this process. On the other hand, the Russian
Foreign Ministry was very clear,
speakiing of a coup, seeking to “preserve stability in a friendly country” and noting that destabilization could also be initiated by “ethnic tensions”. In Macedonia, it is speculated that this spring could bring new movements among extremist Albanian groups fueled by images of “natural Albania” and appeals from ISIL.”

In Macedonia, it is speculated that this spring could bring new movements among extremist Albanian groups fueled by images of “natural Albania” and appeals from ISIL.”
“Geopolitical
analysts point to the fact that with the new project of Russia
“Turkish Stream”, Macedonia became an important hub. Stubborn
Gruevski rejects all proposals to change the name of the state, and
like Orban, shows more interest in cooperation with the eastern
partners and fewer worries for dissatisfaction with Western states
and institutions. Many local analysts argue that this is the
background of current developments and attempts to destabilize
Macedonia. The opposition claims that this is just an excuse for
authoritarian methods.”
And
just for fun and little irony I will quote the second comment below
the article in Politika, posted under the name ‘Serb from
Macedonia’:
“I
carefully read every word. I know the affairs of the Republic of
Macedonia much better than the author of the article. To me, it’s a
COMPLETE anachronism the assertion by the author that it will come to
destabilization of Macedonia and broader area. Even more, the
situation that someone wants to portrait as dangerous and that the
Albanian factor is the most dangerous is not correct.”
No
destabilization indeed!
November
4th 2014. On Voice of Russia (now Sputnik news) , Ratko Paic wrote
of:
“Guard
of the Republic of Ilirida in Macedonia also remotely controlled?”
“And
while in those moments all the theartics possibly looked to some as
just a cleverly designed show with a striking stage presence whose
purpose was only to entertain the audience and end it at that, then
the subsequent events have shown that the problem is deeper, and that
the “play” will have more acts, and that probably many will not
be fun. Namely, several days ago, it went a step further, or if you
want – many steps further, as the self-proclaimed “Republic of
Illirida” got its Guard, which is said that will be patrolling
everywhere where ethnic Albanian population in Macedonia is, until,
as noted, “the final status of that territory is resolved” and
the proclamation was signed by a man who poses as General; from this
all, the conclusion can be derived that someone will actually do
everything in his power to turn into a real life a slogan “Skopje
is the heart of Albania”, which was launched this summer on protest
rallies.”
Another
fact that favours the claim that all this was premediated and that
armed conflict was planned for this spring is this:
The
sudden ‘exodus’ of Albainan population (mainly from Kosovo) into
EU.
http://www.balkanmagazin.net/novosti-i-politika/cid128-108219/kosovski-albanci-masovno-napustaju-kosovo (Feb.
4th 2015))
When
interviewed, people gave various reasons for seeking asylum abroad.
Economin situation is very bad, unemployment rate is sky-high,
constant mafia wars, unsafe place to raise children, more frequent
ISIS recruiters and so on… But interestingly, some gave this for an
answer: fear
from a new conflict in the region.
Many
reports from November to late Febriary in many media outlets spoke of
“massive Albanian exodus”. Now, it should be kept in mind that
all nationalities live equally bad in the region. Serbs and
Macedonians are in the same, hard situation, whether they live on
territory of Serbia and Kosovo or Macedonia. And yet, Albanians make
up overwhelming majority 95+% in this ‘big exodus’. First
reactions from Macedonians and Serbs were – “they know something
that we don’t know.” “War is about to start this spring.”
Why
would they know? Well once the members of armed extremist groups got
their marching orders, it spread throughout the (very close)
community. And why would you, otherwise, choose the middle of the
winter to go on such a risky adventure? -a tip: it was urgent to
leave!
If
Novorussians got the memo from State Department that a war is coming
to their neighbourhood, they’d probably have some of their family
sent away (to Russia or elswhere), even before the actual shooting
started.
http://fakti.org/srpski-duh/iza-egzodusa-su-dirigentski-prsti-zapada-i-vlasti-u-pristini (March
4th 2015)
(first
picture is taken on a bus station in Pristina)
“The
West and authorities from Pristina are behind the exodus”
“This
phenomenon scared many, in a way, but certainly most are in confusion
and dilemma. For these reasons, after following the developments in
Kosovo and Metohija for many years, I wanted to give my observations
and view.”
“Analyzing
this phenomenon, we must first know that the Albanians are a nation
very prone to migration, if one can say so. The most common reasons
for migration are economic in nature but also an element of constant
striving for claiming new territories. That’s why this latest
exodus from Kosovo is not some special phenomenon. However, what is
specific to the current mass exodus is that it occurs in specific
conditions and with strong intensity in a very short period of time.
This
phenomenon undoubtedly leads to the conclusion that in this case we
have a very organized process of emigration.
The
very organization of such a departure, when viewed from the side,
begs the question: how is it possible to animate such a number of
departures on a national basis? However, here too, there’s nothing
especially new as far as the Albanians are concerned, especially when
fullfilling a given national goal.
Concluding
thoughts or Riding out the storm
When
talking about these migrations with people around here, you could
here things like this: “So, it is beginning! – What do you think,
Spring? – Spring or Summer!”
“Did
you hear about the new ‘Turk stream’ they want to build?”
-“Yeah, it’s gonna get bad, Americans will never allow it to pass
through here.”
And
even earlier, when the Ukrainian crisis started. When the Empire
finally took of the mask, and went openly against the Russia, people
here knew. “If Russians continue to win this, it’s the Balkans
then.” -“Yes, it’s our turn, again.”
And,
of course, everyone kept cheering for Russia. Because if the Russians
don’t win this, we won’t even have a fighting chance. If they do
however, there’s hope. Even if that means another war that NATO
will start in the Balkans. The sole fact that they are destabilizing
Macedonia or Serbia or Greece means that we still have a ‘pulse’.
It means that they still have something to ‘shatter’. I’d be
more worried if everything was quiet here – that would mean that we
are way beyond the point of no return, that there are no free people
left here. And for my brothers and sisters in Macedonia and the
region – we just have to ride out this storm.
Macedonia is a fragment of Yugoslavia. The country is small and pretty quiet. But there is a source of tension. It's the Albanian diaspora of the country, which by some estimates is about 25% of population of Macedonia. Albania is next door. And next door is Serbia with Kosovo, virtually occupied by NATO. Where Albanian extremists have much freedom. The Albanian factor is used as a source of destabilization of Macedonia.
Who does it and why?
The purpose is clear if you look at the map.
1. Staging a coup in Ukraine, the U.S. uses the puppet authorities of this country to create tension in Russia. At any time Russian gas supply to Europe may be interrupted, which is a threat to the European economy. A start for such action on the part of Kiev can be anything – from siphoning gas to a terrorist act of "unknown separatists and terrorists". In the end, the US can always threaten and blackmail Russia and Europe with big problems, demanding concessions in the Ukrainian and other issues of world politics.
2. There is a solution to get rid of U.S. blackmail. For this a pipeline is needed bypassing Ukraine. But the U.S. put pressure on Bulgaria and construction of South stream was buried.
3. Then Russia started negotiations with Turkey to build a pipeline through the territory of this country. Now it is called "The Turkish Stream".
4. After passing Turkey the "pipe" should go to Greece. The strengthening of the Russian-Greek contacts, and Russia's willingness to help Greece with loans is the visible part of the negotiations on the construction of "The Stream".
5. Where will the Turkish Stream go after Greece? There are not many options. It is unlikely to go to Bulgaria, obviously, as the authorities of this country are "under" the Americans. The only option remains to lay the pipe through Macedonia, discussions of which were held in February 2015.
6. Then an attack of the Albanian militants from neighboring Kosovo happens to take place in Macedonia.
7. The goal – blocking construction of the Turkish stream.
8. A few days ago, Russia made a statement that the gas will go through Turkish pipe at the end of 2016. If this happens, the US will lose a trump card to put pressure on Russia and Europe, which will certainly lead to the end of the funding of Kiev regime by Europe and low prices for Russian gas. Ukraine will become something like an old suitcase for the U.S. - a pity to throw away, but expensive to repair. In this case, Washington may be forced to "leave" Ukraine (as I wrote in the article "Three prizes of Ukraine").
9. This will be a defeat for the U.S., which is trying to suffocate simultaneously with Russia the economies of their European allies.
10. That's why the States are willing at ANY cost to prevent the construction of the Turkish Stream, so the war in Ukraine and tensions in Europe will continue.
11. Remember who funded the Albanian fighters in Yugoslavia. Who did not allow the Serbs to destroy the terrorists in Kosovo and began to bomb Serbia. Who hid the crimes of Albanian fighters, who cut the organs from Serbs for transplantation. Here's the answer to the question – who paid for the attempt of Albanians to SUDDENLY attack Macedonia.
Macedonia - the next hot spot after Ukraine?
Что стоит за событиями в Македонии

What is behind the events in Macedonia
The geopolitical games of USA around Ukraine have already led to a civil war in this country. Now to maintain the chaos near the borders of Russia and preserve the tension in the center of Europe, the U.S. is ready to plunge another European country into chaos — Macedonia.
