Various of Rugova meeting Javier Solana ,the European Union's foreign policy chief STORYLINE Kosovo President Ibrahim Rugova, who had been suffering from lung cancer, died on Saturday, Kosovo officials close to the president said. He was 61. Earlier in the week, Rugova reduced his activities when flu-like symptoms also affected his lungs. Rugova, who came to embody ethnic Albanians' struggle for independence from Serbia, was officially diagnosed with lung cancer last September. In August 2004 , Rugova was flown to a US military base in Germany for medical treatment after the flu forced him to reduce his activities in the province. Rugova has been Kosovo's ethnic Albanian leader since the early 1990s, when he led a non-violent movement against the policies of then Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic targeting ethnic Albanians.
