Serbian Foreign Minister: Granting independence to Kosovo may be an
example for Nagorno Garabagh and other unrecognized institutions
[ 03 Nov. 2006 14:19 ]
Serbian Foreign Minister Vuk Draskovich said that Kosovo may be an
example for Nagorno Garabagh, APA Eastern bureau reports.
The Minister said that in case that Kosovo achieves its independence
it will be a precedent for Nagorno Garabagh and other unrecognized
institutions in Post Soviet space. He said that while discussing
Moldova's sovereignty and integrity Serbia voted for such kind of
resolution. The Minister said it is impossible to agree to Kosovo's
independence even theoretically.
"We will not allow Kosovo's accession to the UN and organizations
stressing the sovereignty of states openly. We will keep to this
principle even in the most severe diplomatic struggle," the minister
said.
Vuk Draskovich said if the UN grants independence to Kosovo, it will
be an example for Transdniestria, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Nagorno
Garabagh, Northern Cyprus, Basque in Spain and even Ireland.
"I counted. Nearly 40 states of the world may achieve independence,"
the Minister said. /APA/
