Hah, I almost didn't catch the snark.

I remember the great hopes in the West for Kostunica. This was the Democrat who was the first to translate important documents of American democracy into Serbian.

Turned out he was a "nationalist" and a "hardliner."

I must note that at least in the German and Hungarian press I read at the time, Kostunica was considered a nationalist and a 'lesser ill' before the toppling of Milo. Zoran Đinđić was the clear choice for sympathetic presentation.
