New State, Modern Statesman: Hashim Thaci - A Biography

by Roppongi's Ace, Roger Boyes

Overview

Less than twenty years ago, a young, ethnic Albanian student leader called
Hashim Thaçi led a revolution against Slobodan Milošević. During a period when
Western military engagement unleashed violent sectarianism, global terrorism,
and became a catalyst for the biggest exodus of migrants since the Second World
War, the 1999 NATO intervention in Kosovo remains a unique example of a process that led to a peaceful transition from vicious ethnic war to modern democracy.
Thaçi is now President of Europe’s youngest country.
