Summary/Abstract: The article aims to document that Western efforts to find a solution to the decades-long Serbia-Kosovo crisis are doomed to fail. This is because they address the symptoms without getting to the roots. The Kosovo issue has become the central instrument of Serbia’s political class to cement its own rule. A lasting solution for Kosovo would also threaten the socio-political situation in Serbia. If the West does not succeed in democratising and reforming the ruling system in Serbia, the Kosovo conflict cannot be resolved either. Above all, changes in the censored media landscape and the nationalistically instrumentalised school education are a conditio sine qua non.
