"Madam President, at this time of international involvement in the Balkans, a European Parliament resolution centred on the problems of the inhabitants of Kosovo would have been very opportune, but regrettably, we run the risk of turning this opportunity into an error if the resolution that we approve the day after tomorrow does not recognise that a common position is only possible through a resolution of the Security Council of the United Nations or if there is agreement between the parties. That is to say, the opportunity will be lost if we do not recognise that the international rule of law must prevail, and that international law is not a branch of statistics but that it is very precise and not based on majorities, percentages, or the number of Member States that do or do not recognise a state, and that it sets out very specific criteria.
We will also be committing an error if we adopt a resolution that does not acknowledge that the absence of a common position should not impede the European Union’s commitment to Kosovo within the framework of a process of dialogue for stabilisation and partnership.
The European Union should strengthen stability and peace in Kosovo through support for multi-religious, multi-party, multi-ethnic, etc. states that respect the international rule of law."@en1
