"As we said at the time, and as has been borne out by reality: the unilateral declaration of independence by the Serbian province of Kosovo was an extremely serious event and set a dangerous precedent of disrespecting international law, with potential consequences for the stability of borders that cannot be fully foreseen, particularly on the European continent. It was a flagrant violation of the United Nations Charter and the Helsinki Accords, as well as an illegal decision under the most basic principles of international law. It should be stressed that this illegality has still not been acknowledged by many countries, including Member States, despite the desire repeatedly expressed by the majority in Parliament. Reality has shown that the artificial creation of this ‘pseudo-state’ or veritable protectorate under ‘supervised sovereignty’ – a strange concept – did not result from the sovereign will of the people, but rather was imposed using aggression and military occupation by the US, by NATO and by the EU; it is maintained by KFOR, backed up by the European Union’s EULEX mission. This is an attempt by the United States and the major powers of the European Union to use the politics of
to perpetuate the political, economic and military domination of this important region of Europe."@en1
