The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe doesn’t have a common position of Kosovo’s status, PACE President Rene van der Linden said. “The latest debates showed that positions differ. Presently, it’s hard to foretell the outcomes of the discussions due on January 21-25, 2008, in Strasbourg,” he said.
“PACE and Russia’s interests coincide on many issues,” he added, RIA Novosti reports.
Yesterday the EU and U.S. officials announced failure of talks. The issue should be discussed under the aegis of the EU and NATO, they said.
Russia supported Belgrade which rules out re-establishment of borders in defiance of the UN regulations, what was defined as a deadlock in the format of the UN Security Council, where Russia possesses the right of veto.
