Ethnic Albanians mourn their relatives and neighbours killed by Serbian forces eight years ago, in the village of Meje, some 90 km (56 miles) west of the Kosovo's capital Pristina, April 27, 2007. United Nations envoys heard Albanians plead for the independence of Kosovo on Friday, while the Serb minority opposed it and the West made another diplomatic concession to placate Serb-backer Russia.

Isa Koka (C), an ethnic Albanian from the troubled Serbian province of Kosovo, cheers as U.S. President George W. Bush arrives in central Tirana June 10, 2007. Bush received a warm welcome on Sunday in Albania in the first visit by a U.S. leader to a Balkan state once closed to the West but now a firm ally and enthusiastic supporter of the United States.
