Many times we have strongly condemned the crimes of Milosevic s regime in Kosovo while our Church in Kosovo supported suffering Albanian civilians and saved some of them from the hands of Milosevic s paramilitaries. After the end of Kosovo war and return of Albanian refugees the repression of Milosevic's undemocratic regime was supplanted by the repression of extremist Kosovo Albanians against Serbs and other non-Albanian communities in full view of international troops. Freedom in Kosovo has not come for all equally. Therefore Kosovo remains a troubled region even after 8 months of international peace. Although Kosovo remained more or less multiethnic during the ten years of Milosevic s repressive rule, today there is hardly any multiethnicity at all in fact the reverse is true.
Ethnic segregation is greater now than almost at any other time in Kosovo s turbulent history.
Not only are Serbs being driven out from the Province but also the Romas, Slav Moslems, Croats, Serb speaking Jews and Turks. More than 80 Orthodox churches have been either completely destroyed or severely damaged since the end of the war. The ancient churches, many of which had survived 500 years of Ottoman Moslem rule, could not survive 8 months of the internationally guaranteed peace. Kosovo more and more becomes ethnically clean while organized crime and discrimination against the non-Albanians is epidemic. In addition more than 50.000 Romas, Slav Moslems, Croat Catholics and others have also been cleansed from Kosovo.
