Kosovo: NEWBORN monument in Pristina (No Walls)

At the NEWBORN monument in Pristina.  The sculpture was unveiled on 17 February 2008, the day that Kosovo declared independence from Serbia.
As you can see -- the N and the W are laying flat. There is a 2nd design right now as well.  The N and W on the ground now are also part of the phrase NO WALLS.

Donald Trump is not the only one building walls -- the Serbs recently built a wall in the northern Kosovo town of Mitrovica, dividing the northern part (Serbian) from the southern part (Albanian). 

You can see more about the current situation in this recent New York Times article, "Russia Stirs Friction in the Balkans,as NATO Keeps Uneasy Peace" : New York Times article
