The Nobel Prize for Literature given to the controversial novelist Peter Handke sparked numerous reactions in Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina and beyond.
That is because Peter Handke had not concealed his admiration for the regime of Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic.
Handke had even attended the Balkan Casap funeral, with what he had given a speech in which he had honoured Milosevic.
Renowned American journalist Peter Maass has found that Peter Handkes has been offered Yugoslav passports, just when ethnic cleansing was being carried out in Kosovo by the Serbian regime, Kosovo reports.
Serbia's “Passport was issued by the Yugoslav Embassy in Vienna on 15 June 1999. On the left side of the passport, just above Handkes' photograph, writes that his nationality is Yugoslav”.
