/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Council of Europe Secretary General Terry Davis
said he can’t foretell the reaction of the Committee of Europe if
Kosovo proclaims independence.

"Kosovo will proclaim independence and the Committee of Ministers
will have to react. I can’t foretell the reaction but it’s not a
secret that European states can agree with each other. They don’t
have a common approach to the Kosovo problem. Kosovo is a part of
Serbia. The borders of states are not determined by the Council of
Europe. We know that the UN Security Council is experiencing huge
problems," Mr Davis said, ITAR TASS reports.

On January 20, Kosovo’s Prime Minister Hashim Thaci declared that
the date of independence proclamation has been already coordinated
with Washington and Brussels and will be announced in the near future.
