Default Russia will veto Kosovo UN bid


Quote:
MOSCOW -- Russia will not allow Kosovo fully-fledged UN membership, says Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

Nor will it allow the possibility of the Kosovo issue being taken out of the UN’s sphere of influence.

“We have done our best to ruin the plans for a speedy and large-scale recognition of Kosovo independence,“ Lavrov said in the Russian Duma.

The Russian foreign minister said that recognition of Kosovo independence was tantamount to “punishment measures from countries that were trying to assume the right to speak on behalf of the entire international community.“

"Europe stands before a serious threat to destabilization that could spread throughout the entire Balkans and beyond,” he warned.

Lavrov said that the situation in Serbia was unstable, public dissatisfaction was perceptible, and that this was “a direct result of irresponsible and short-sighted policy directed at support for Kosovo’s unilateral independence declaration.”

Recognition of an independent Kosovo, said the minister, went against the principle of state equality enshrined within the UN Charter, UN Security Council resolutions, OSCE documents and the Council of Europe.

“The attempt to present the situation in Kosovo as an exception and unique, simply does not wash,” he stressed.

“Even though the Slobodan Milošević did oppress the Kosovo Albanians, today’s Serbia, a democratic Serbia, has not given any reason to doubt in its willingness to ensure respect for minority rights,” Lavrov pointed out.

Such a sanction was “all the more unlawful given that in 1999, Serbia was already punished by being stripped of its right to exercise its sovereignty in Kosovo, not to mention the NATO bombing, where tens of thousands of Kosovo Serbs became refugees or disappeared from the territory of Kosovo,” the minister recalled.

For this reason, he said, Russia would not allow Kosovo to join the UN.

He went on to tell the Duma, during a speech on Kosovo and the unrecognized republics of the former Soviet Union, that Moscow was “monitoring the question of recognition of independence throughout the Commonwealth of Independent States very closely, bearing in mind the Kosovo precedent.”

Well, yep... And China is not going to recognize Kosovo soon... Or at all. With 2 major world powers against the "independence" - they will be having hard time entering the important world political and economic institutions and organizations.

Belgrade understands that KFDA with the help of KOsova POlice and NATO has done in the past and it will happen again.Serbia must respect the laws of its neighboring country, Republic of Kosova.



As for the UN.....what is UN?

Republic of Kosova is an independent and sovereign country.

What a joke, just because the Chinese and Russians struggle to hold together their own empires against independence groups!!!!!

China and Russia don't want to recognise it because they have several break away regions of their own. Fair enough. However, Russia has proven over the past 800 years it sucks at looking after Eastern Europe so now get over it, they're coming to the people who caused the USSR to collapse.

Taiwan doesn't seem to be having much trouble.

Yes. It means being able to make your own laws, without anyone else to veto you.

Kosovo did not have that under Serbian dominion. But they have it now.

No, it's just because it annoys you and because it is opposite to your stand. That should be the only way Russian and Chinese policy should function. Whatever Uncle Sam says - say and do the opposite and be sure it's the right thing to do. You don't have a grain of credibility for anything anymore. The only thing that keeps you is your brute force.

Legislative power is just one of 3 powers which true sovereignty consists of. Even you know that.
