"Croatia, Slovenia sign border dispute deal"
http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe/11/04/croatia.slovenia.agreement/index.html
Ahh, some good news for once. So refreshing! What is this feeling? Hope? Happiness?! After reading an international news article? How absurd!
In all seriousness, it is unbelievably nice to see two nations cooperating through peaceful conversation to solve a dispute, rather than through guns and violence. Instead of continuing its petty veto of Croatia's European Union membership, Slovenia and Croatia were able to negotiate border settlement, paving the way for Croatia's final induction into the EU and more importantly, peace between the two battling countries. Though certainly we are a long way from worldwide harmony such as this, hopefully these two countries will inspire others and set a new trend in solving international disputes.
