<div id="ygrps-yiv-72392430">The Washington Post ran an article today about the granting and<br/>
restoration of citizenship by the government of Serbia and Montenegro<br/>
(rump-Yugoslavia) to the family of and to Crown Prince Alexander II. <br/>
The prince was stripped of his citizenship by Tito in 1947.<br/>
<br/>
The ceremony was held in February 2001 in the suite in Claridge&#39;s<br/>
Hotel that Churchill declared in 1947 as Yugoslav territory.  The<br/>
Prince and his family returned to Belgrade in July 2001 where they now<br/>
live in their ancestral palace, according to the article.   <br/>
<br/>
I think the group had a discussion about vertical sovereignty some<br/>
time back, and the suite came up when someone asked whether Yugoslavia<br/>
ended at the floor and ceiling.<br/>
<br/>
It&#39;s interesting that the exclave still fulfills a need once in<br/>
awhile. When Yugoslavia isn&#39;t using it, and a &quot;foreigner&quot; stays there,<br/>
I wonder if there are any &quot;border&quot; formalities at the door<br/>
(immigration control at the concierge or check-in counter?). Maybe we<br/>
have here also a case of Co- or joint or shared sovereignty?  Sterling<br/>
accepted (alongside dinars?) <br/>
