Kampala-APA. Foreign ministers of the Organization of the Islamic
Conference split over the Kosovo's independence at their 35th meeting

the recognition of Kosovo as an independent country.
Baku rests on the occupation of its territory Nagorno Karabakh by
Armenians and self-declared independence by referendum there. Egypt
refuses to recognize Kosovo being careful for its relations with
Russia and Serbia. Turkish sources said Ankara was making efforts to
change Azerbaijan's and Egypt's positions.
