Among them, the Albanian speaking population counts approximately 200-250'000 persons and is composed by Kosovars, but also Macedonian, Serbian and Albanian Citizens. The diaspora's interest in their country of origin's development remains high, not least among the second génération which is developing new patterns of transnational identity and relations. A dense transnational network is aiready established between the diaspora and the population of the Balkans, thus constituting a high potential for interaction. |
