EDITORIAL

Is there really no scandal at all? If all we have to go on in the increasingly complex Christos Zachopoulos case is witness testimonies, then what are we really left with? A sex tape that no one is known to have directed, no one appears to have shot, no one passed on to others, no one had the curiosity to look at and which no one even dared touch. In fact, there appears to be no scandal worth noting, financial or otherwise, save a small number of outstanding tax debts which have little bearing on the Zachopoulos case anyway.

COMMENTARY

Losing Serbia The ethnic Albanians of Kosovo are expected to make a unilateral declaration of independence within days. Kosovar Prime Minister Hashim Thaci claimed on Friday that about 100 countries were ready to recognize Kosovo when it breaks away from Serbia. Every nation seeks its independence and no one can blame the Kosovo Albanians for the persistence with which they have pursued theirs.
