TERRY DAVIS: COE DOESN’T FOLLOW U.S. IN KOSOVO ISSUE
- The council of Europe is not guided by the United States as regards the Kosovo problem, CoE Secretary General Terry Davis said. “The U.S. wields no influence on decisions of the Council of Europe. If Kosovo proclaims independence, 47 members of the Council of Europe which is represented by 27 EU member states will make decision on the issue. I can’t say what decision it will be, since the opinions of the member states differ,” he said. At that Mr Davis said that it’s hard to tell how the proclamation of Kosovo’s independence will affect resolution of other conflicts, including the Nagorno Karabakh one. “I have numerously stated that the CoE will support the UN decision, which is unlikely in the near future. However, the Council of Europe will arrive at an agreement and continue monitoring of human rights, education, local self-government and cultural heritage in Kosovo,” he said, Trend reports.
