U.S. Undersecretary for Political Affairs Nicholas Burns has said that Kosova's final status should be settled "one or two months" after Serbia's elections, UPI, Beta, and B92 reported on January 11, citing an interview by Voice of America. Burns said the people of Kosova, more than seven years after the war ended, do not know what their status is. All people, he added, have the right to know on which territory they live and who rules over this territory. Burns added that the United States will not propose any option for Kosova until after UN envoy Ahtisaari announces his proposal. Ahtisaari is expected to announce his proposal shortly after Serbia's January 21 elections. The UN Security Council must approve any final solution for Kosova. BW // Copyright (c) 2005. RFE/RL, Inc.
