BIDEN: Kosovo's Independence is Milestone in Road towards Peaceful, Prosperous Future

Biden Urges Serbia to Take European Path

BIDEN: “For eight years now, the people of Kosovo – and the region – have struggled to build their economy and societies on a foundation of uncertainty. Today, we have an opportunity to remove that veil of doubt…Kosovo’s new government must protect the magnificent heritage of Serbia’s past, but we must help safeguard Kosovo’s future.”

BIDEN: “We should recognize Kosovo's independence for the milestone that it is. Managed deftly, it will remove the last major stumbling block standing between the Balkans and a peaceful, prosperous future.”

This must make Biden feel pretty good.
This is something he can take credit for and be proud of.
