Recognition of Kosovo Punishes Serbian Democracy
Vuc Jeremic, Serbian Foreign Minister | February 27, 2008
Kosovo's illegal declaration of independence has destabilized the international system. ++ Recognizing Kosovo legitimizes imposed solutions to ethnic conflicts, unilateral secession by a non-state actor, and forced partition to sovereign states. ++ "Recognizing Kosovo means saying, in effect, that Serbian democracy must be punished because [Milosevic] was left unpunished."
