Davis: Council of Europe defends the territorial integrity of its member-states
Council of Europe Secretary General Terry Davis expressed in Strasbourg doubt in the justification of a possible imposed decision to the status of Kosovo-Metohija, as it would not be in line with the accepted principle of respect for the territorial integrity of states. As a secretary general, I support the territorial integrity of Council of Europe member-states until the UN decides otherwise, he emphasized at a breakfast with the press during the sitting of the Council of Europe Parliamentary Assembly.
