Oh AIDU, yes, yes, yes. Kosovo may be old hat - especially with Helmand being the focus of all the fighting at the moment.

However, Kosovo is important as far as UK Plc is concerned - it is about to potentially tear itself apart and the UK Spearhead Bn is the lead NATO Reaction Force from early 08 onwards. Plenty of scope for the UK to be going back into the Balkans when everyone's attention is focussed to the east.

Coupled with that, the Balkans at the moment could well become a proxy for the NATO - Russian ding-dong that has seen Q launched how many times this autumn? Won't say anymore .... wouldn't want to give all the answers away!
