Summary/Abstract: The opinion of the International Court of Justice on Kosovo’s independence, Serbia’s agreement to a joint resolution on Kosovo with the EU in the UN General Assembly and the refusal of a London court to extradite Ejub Ganić at Serbia’s request all testify to the Serbian national program coming up against the resolve of the EU and the US not to allow the redrawing of Balkan borders President Boris Tadić’s Kosovo policy over the past year has been at the expense of his popularity in Western circles, and one might even talk about disappointment in Belgrade’s behaviour. The behaviour of Vuk Jeremić, the foreign aff airs minister, has been a particular irritation to the EU and the US. This dissatisfaction has also been apparent in the increasingly frequent meetings between Westerners and SNS head Toma Nikolić during the summer.
