Why did the US become involved in the Kosovo crisis?

Asked by Wiki User

The term Kosovo War or Kosovo Conflict is used to describe two sequential, and at times parallel, armed conflicts in Kosovo. Just a couple of years ago very few people in the United States, Russia or Western Europe, beside experts on the Balkans, would have recognized the name Kosovo and still fewer would have known anything about this obscure Serbian province. Since early 1999 all the world?s attention has been concentrated on the events in this hot spot.

Clinton spoke in a public meeting about why we were getting involved. He said, trying to get public approval, that the reason the U.S. is getting involved is largely an economical reason. He said that this war would help the U.S. financially. By getting involved, we would become partners with Europe, thus increasing a trade relationship.

What is the meaning of the name Kosovo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

"Blackbird's" actually! It's possessive noun, abbreviation of Kosovo Polje, or "blackbird's field" in English. In Shqipe, or Albanian language if you liked, it goes somehow like " mulizezë-së fushe"... if you trust google translate, in their language Kosovo means nothing, they just replaced last letter "o" with "a", so that it sounds Shqipe. But generally it's Serbian noun, for Serbian part of their southern province, or whatever is it now, but... that's another issue! Dig it now?

The claim of such is disputed. The Serbs say it is, most of the people there say not.
Yes, Kosovo how it is pronounced is in the southern part of Serbia, but due to the war in 1999, Serbia has no governing in Kosovo.

Why did UN troops bomb Kosovo and Serbia?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The premise of the question is incorrect in its specifics. There was no United Nations force that was involved in the Kosovo War; there was a NATO force that was in operation during that conflict.

The NATO force intervened primarily to prevent a Serbian Genocide of Albanian Kosovars. As a result, the bombing runs targeted key aspects of Serbian infrastructure and military vehicles in order to weaken that state's ability to wage war against its Albanian minority.
