Sažetak
Analyses which deal with creation of Kosovo state and new processes in Balkans must necessary start from engagement of the main world actor: USA and its explicitly stated wish for new subject of international relations to be created in this turbulent area. Analysis of American attitudes, as well as concrete moves taken by the administrations in the period from the end of the Cold war until creation of the new state, clearly show some kind of interest for Kosovo independence, differently shaped and presented in public in every single phase. Fitting into the broader courses of American policy, Kosovo has never gained isolated nor independent meaning. Even during the strongest American and NATO military engagement, the situation was perceived in regional but also in broader international relations as a part of the possible American performance in the world scene.
