Welcome to our new episode of Ethnic Policy podcast, where we discuss and discover topics around ethnicities, ethnic conflicts, and minority politics around the world. Ethnic policy is an entity concerned with identity and ethnic related studies.
In 2018, news had surfaced regarding a potential redraw of borders between Serbia and Kosovo; as a part that would see the latter giving up its northern Serb dominated region (North Mitrovica that is), in exchange for Serbia’s Albanian dominated southern region, the Presevo Valley.
Those who are in favour of the deal from both sides, say that it may end a decades long conflict. Whilst others anticipate more unrest, in a region with a recent turbulent history. In this episode, we discuss with Kristiana Kuqi, the land swap proposal, and assess the idea that seems fairly simple and straightforward, yet has much more complications to it.
Kristiana Kuqi is a researcher from Kosovo, living in Washington DC, with two majors in History and Political Science. She is also a historian at Dua.com. You can find her on Twitter here.
