Remember back 9 years to 1999 and the war over Kosovo when thousands of Kosovan refugees fled to Britain. Well today in anticipation of impending Kosovo to be anounced independence tommorrow thousands of them took to the streets of central London and rallied in Trafalgar Square to celebrate.

They carried the red double headed eagle Albanian flag and many also carried British and American flags too. I spoke to a few in Trafalgar Square and they said they were grateful to NATO countries for helping their country achieve liberation. Others said the planned to return to their native Kosovo after nine years of exile in the UK.
