"Madam President, I welcome today’s debate and resolution as the next step in the normalisation of relations between the European Union and Kosovo one year after independence.
It is important to stress that those, like Mr Van Orden and Mr Tannock of the British Conservatives, who oppose the move, have been proved wrong, with now 54 countries – including 22 of our own European Member States – offering legal recognition, and our own EU Rule of Law Mission has been deployed with the assent of Serbia. Indeed, all along we have argued that a resolved Kosovo helps Serbia’s EU aspirations, and today we repeat that we want them to succeed.
Yesterday, the EU Justice Mission opened its first war crimes trial in Kosovo. Today, Her Royal Highness Princess Anne of Britain is visiting a school for disabled children in Gjilan, Kosovo. Surely, both together demonstrate Europe’s commitment never to forget past injustices but to work today towards a better future for all."@en1
