Thousands Gather in Vienna to Protest the Loss of Serbia's Ancient Heartland
Some 8,000 people gathered at Heldenplatz, on Sunday Feb. 24, to support Serbia in what looked like another useless demonstration against the independence of Kosovo. People had shown up in traditional military uniforms, carrying flags, and many had stitched the red star of the old Yugoslavia on their clothes and hats.
Emotions were running high as a group of protesters chanted slogans like, "Kosovo is the heart and soul of Serbia!" Or, "Kosovo was and will always remain Serbian."
