Gypsies - The Most Marginalized Minorities In Kosovo

Five thousand Roma, as gypsies in Kosovo are commonly known, camp out in abandoned buildings. They await their fate and worry about whether they'll be able to stay in the region. Neither the Serbs nor the Albanians recognize them as Kosovars and accuse them of engaging in criminal activities or assisting the other side during the recent conflict. The United Nations International Police continue to offer protection to the Roman people until a decision is reached regarding their status.
