The first, a very important moment, is if half the world’s states do not recognize Kosovo. That will be a big blow for proponents of Kosovo independence, and will have a big psychological impact. The other aspect is international-legal. Russia will block Kosovo’s membership of all the important international organizations, starting with the UN and the OSCE. That will be a clear indicator that the West has erred by supporting Kosovo’s unilateral independence,” Kosachov explained.
