BALKANS LAKE NAMED FOR TRUMP AFTER SUGGESTION IN JEST
President Donald Trump is set to have a lake named after him in the Balkans. The reservoir lies on the border of Kosovo and Serbia and the two countries, which have a deeply fractious relationship, have long disagreed about what it should be called. For Kosovo, it is Lake Ujman while for Serbia, it is Lake Gazivoda. Now it has been suggested it be renamed Lake Trump, in recognition of the U.S. government's help in forging an economic accord between the two nations. The proposal was announced by Richard Grenell, pictured, the president's special envoy for Kosovo and Serbia. He said that both Aleksandar Vucic, the president of Serbia, and Avdullah Hoti, the prime minister of Kosovo, had agreed on the name change. Grenell said he had originally made the proposal in jest.
