Kosovo Independence: One Year On

Per Al Jazeera English, Kosovo is celebrating the one year anniversary of gaining independence from Serbia. The BBC website reports that there are mixed reactions to the anniversary, especially from Kosovo's remaining Serbian residents. The 24 hour English-language news channel Russia Today has video about the anniversary while the Belgrade radio station B92 reports on its website about the day in Pristina, Kosovo's capital city.

Twitterers are posting about the celebrations, with some noting that not everyone is happy about Kosovan independence.
