As you probably know, there will be held a
referendum in Montenegro later this month
about their continuous "marriage" with the
remainder of Yugoslavia (Serbia). This re-
lationship is most likely to end up with a -
hopefully - peaceful divorce, since the
overwhelming majority of people in Crna
Gora/Montenegro want a clean cut - and
independence! The newly erected Yugoslav
president Kostunica should be - according to
news reports - be willing to "let them go" if
they wish... quite a contradiction to what he's
been saying up to now!
Well: if the "Black Mountain" State Montenegro
gets its independence, it will be country number
42 in Europe and as a consequence hereof
the number of Eur. tripoints will rise from 44
to 46...:
The old tp Yugosl-Bosnia-H.-Croatia will be
renamed Montenegro-Bosnia-Croatia and
there will be established two new tps:
Albania-Montenegro-Yugoslavia(Kosovo!)
Bosnia+H.-Montenegro-Yugosl.(Serbia).
Quite interesting to follow Balcan politics!
Happy Easter to all of you !
Peter H.
