KOSOVO: UN COURT BEGINS TO EXAMINE INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION (ANSAmed) - BRUSSELS - The International Justice Court, which regulates controversies between nations for the UN, began this morning to examine at the Hague the legality of Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence from Serbia. Before the UN court, until December 11, Serbia, Kosovo and 29 nations will appear. The court's ruling will arrive in coming months. Kosovo proclaimed independence on February 17 2008. Until today, 63 countries have recognised its independence as a former Serbian province with a population that is for the most part Albanian. In the EU, 22 of 27 nations have recognised the scission. Serbia has always been opposed to Kosovo's move, considering it against international law and for this reason opened a case before the international Justice Court.(ANSAmed). http://www.ansamed.info/en/top/ME11.XAM14281.html __._,_.___
