You’ve probably not heard about this. But, it’s potentially a next European war.
The EU and the US can’t de-escalate the situation.
From the Beeb:
The EU and Serbia have warned that violence could erupt in Kosovo after EU-mediated talks failed to resolve a dispute over Serbian car number plates.
The Kosovan authorities want the ethnic Serb minority to surrender their Serbian-issued plates. Serbia does not recognise Kosovan independence.
Serbia's President Aleksandar Vucic said the situation "is literally on the verge of conflict". He too has urged Kosovo's special police not to attempt to enforce the fines. Ethnic Serb police officers resigned en masse earlier this month in protest at Pristina's number plate ruling.
You know a society’s unhinged when number plates (or the colour of one’s passports; wee dig at brexiteers) can bring you to the verge of conflict. Or polarise society to the extreme.
I don’t know if it’s much of a debate, but this is certainly a situation to keep an eye on.
@shavixmir saidIt’s for the Kosovans to not push this ridiculous mandate and the EU should be blocking any kind of aid or support for Kosovo until they get out of the ethnic Serb faces.

They could just designate them as personal number plates and let it go. Maybe they should have another look at the map of Kosovo.
