Yes, the Spanish blocked an EU resolution on Kosovo today - in the end they decided to remain split on the issue.

And Indonesia has condemned Kosovo’s action as illegal, and stated that they will not recognise its independence. And then we have Sri Lanka.....

I mean it is not as we didn’t have enough problems in the world today. Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Israel, Iran, Copenhagen is burning for the 8th day in a row....etc, etc.

Azerbaijan says not recognizing Kosovo independence

BAKU (Reuters) - Ex-Soviet Azerbaijan said on Monday it did not recognize Kosovo’s declaration of independence.

“We view this illegal act as being in contradiction with international law,” said Khazar Ibrahim, head of the press service at Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry.

“Proceeding from this, Azerbaijan’s position is clear: it does not recognize (Kosovo’s) independence.”

Kosovo declared its independence from Serbia on Sunday. The United States and most members of the European Union are expected to grant recognition soon.

Azerbaijan has been trying to restore control over its breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh, where ethnic Armenian separatists threw off Azeri rule in a war in the 1990s that killed about 35,000 people.

The separatists’ foreign minister said on Sunday Kosovo’s independence would help Nagorno-Karabakh’s drive for international recognition.

Azerbaijan has 34 troops serving in the NATO-led Kosovo peacekeeping force KFOR.
