It's a shame that the internet is a virtual medium, because there are a lot of people out there that I'd like to express my deep feelings of friendship to, and having spent the last two years here in Serbia, I'd like to do it in a truly Serbian way.
Kosovo Passports Revealed

Kosovo's new passport
“We prepared an information package that we will send to all the countries, informing them about our new passports, and the security details,” said interior minister Zenun Pajaziti.
Pajaziti added that the same package of information will be sent to countries that have not recognised Kosovo yet, “especially to the neighbouring countries.”
The new passports will contain 32 pages while citizens will wait for two weeks after applying before receiving the document.
Kosovo was been under United Nations administration until February 17, when the Parliament formally declared independence from Serbia.
Since 1999, Kosovars were using the UN-issued travel documents, instead of real passports. The documents, according to the Interior Ministry, will be valid until they expire, while Kosovars will not be able to extent these documents any more.
