Ruecker: Local elections illegal

RUECKER , PUT YOUR NOSE OUT OF SUVEREIGN COUNTRY INTERNAL AFFAIRS !!! YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT SERBIAN PROPERTY HERE !!!

So stop the UDI then. That is not in line with 1244 - unless you twist lie and bend that is.

In my view the acceptance of the UDI as a political settlement by any nation means that that nation can no longer use 1244 as an argument - 1244 lasts as long as there is not a political settlement.

In my view, Serbia is at liberty to take steps to preserve its territorial integrity and act against any nation that breaks 1244.

This election is a legitimate defense and it would be wrong of the UN to interfere with it.

What is "Kosovo Law"? I've heard of international law, I've heard of Roman Law, I've even heard of Law and Order. But "Kosovo Law"? That's a new one.

Last I checked, these two words are mutually exclusive unless used in a sentence such as "The is no Law in Kosovo", or "Law is completely arbitrary in Kosovo".

'Kosovo law' means nothing less than the actual law of independent state Kosovo. This is how I read it.
Did Mr Ruecker just single handedly in front of UN have recognized the ilegal Nato statelet Kosovo?
I'd say yes. How long more to go UN?
KOSOVO IS SERBIA.

"Kosova law" --- because he is in Kosova not in Srbija.

Mr Reucker, if you didn't do anything to protect res 1244 and stop the UDI then you have no right to speak of protecting res 1244 and stop the elections.

You can't have it both ways. One group is allowed to break this law and the other not. First acknowledge that Kosovo is not a country and is a part of Serbia if you want to sound credible and in favour of respecting 1244 and then talk about breach of this from the Serbian side.

You will see that when you do the first, the second doesn't even become an issue.

Get your priorities straight here or simply shut up.

Ruecker! How can Serbia's Local Elections be Illegal!
If Ruecker tried to stop the Local Elections in Serbia, now that would be Illegal.
A UDI over Serbia's sovereign territory is Illegal and over 150 countries know it and are watching.

Ruecker -

You will stand there on election day, like an eunuch, watching but totally unable to do anything about it.

I must say that I am very disappointed in both Doris Pack (Chairwoman of the European Parliament's Delegation for
Southeastern Europe) and Göran Farm (Swedish member of the same delegation). After this article (http://www.b92.net/eng/news/politics-article.php?yyyy=2008&mm=04&dd=19&nav_id=49565) appeared on B92 on April 19, I sent both of them a question asking exactly what they believed UNMIK should do about the planned elections in Kosovo (see text below).

So far I have received no reply what so ever.

Text of letter:

I believe you are correct when you say that resolution 1244 do not allow for the organization of local Serbian elections in Kosovo, but I have to wonder, what do you suggest the new government and/or UNMIK should do if local Serbs ignores this and organizes their such elections?

If they start handing out self-made voting cards , sets up local voting places, perhaps in their private homes, and takes out adverts in the local newspapers and announces that on May 11 those people who have received a voting card are welcome to go and vote at this and that address?

What should UNMIK then do?

Should they arrest the local Serbs for trying to organize an election, polling what their countrymen thinks? Or would they only be arrested when they tried to hand over the election results to the Serbian government in Belgrade?

Should they arrest any person carrying one of those self-made voting cards on May 11?

Forbid more than 6 person to meet in a house on "election day"?

Maybe it is a flaw in my way of thinking, but I wonder how an
UN-organisation, or a Kosovo government that claims to be support democratic ideals, could even think of preventing anyone from holding elections. I am not saying that UNMIK or the the Kosovo government would need to respect the results - they could simply ignore them - but I do not see what right they or anyone else has to stop people from organizing an election.
