Original Message
Fears of a new Balkan war gripped Western capitals last night after the powder-keg state of Kosovo declared independence from its powerful neighbour Serbia.
Serbia's ally Russia immediately denounced the move and warned it was likely to spark "new conflict" as 600 British troops were put on standby to fly out in the event of widespread civil unrest.
Britain already has 150 troops in Kosovo as part of the 15,000-strong Nato-led KFOR peacekeeping force.
Around 60 British police and judicial experts are among a 1,800-strong European Union mission which will go to Kosovo to help with security, legal and customs issues.
