to universal recognition

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Independence of Kosovo preceded
determination of status. This is the blunder of Martti
Ahtisaari’s plan, a Russian expert said.

-Proclaimed independence will not bring international
rule in Kosovo. Democratic institutes will not
function there, free elections will not be held,- RIA
Novosti Director for CIS and Baltic States Alan
Kasayev told Caucasus 2007 international conference.
-Kosovo will not be a UN member; it will not be
controlled by the European security system basing in
the OSCE; it will not fall under jurisdiction of the
Council of Europe and its legal structures; it will be
beyond control of the much talked-about OSCE/ODIHR.-

-The Kosovo conflict is as unique as the conflicts in
Abkhazia, South Ossetia or Transnistria. The Nagorno
Karabakh conflict is not ordinary either. So,
recognition of Kosovo by a number of states will
hardly lead to its universal recognition,- Kasayev
said.
