"Early results from the weekend's general election showed that five years of UN rule had only deepened ethnic divisions as Kosovo's voters signalled their despair with the Balkan province's administrators."

A European envoy to Afghanistan said that while there has been some flaws, they were not serious enough to affect the actual outcome of the vote. "The vote pretty accurately reflects what the people feel," Francesc Vendrell, the EU's special representative, told the BBC.
