Watches now Kosovo state edges forward slowly

BBC News, Kosovo
In arid scrubland under a scorching sun in southern Kosovo, a group of uniformed men don heavy helmets and protective vests.
These recruits from the recently formed Kosovo Security Force (KSF) are taught to take every precaution.
They are learning how to defuse explosive devices - still a vital task 11 years after the end of the Kosovan war.
Once the detonation wire is fed along the parched earth to the device, an electrical current is sent, producing a large controlled explosion.
The training comes from some of the 10,000 Nato peacekeepers that remain here.
