International Law Professor Tibor Varadi said that the debate before the ICJ regarding Kosovo’s independence is a chance for affirming international law. “The court was willing to discuss such a question, because it is a great chance for the affirmation of international law. Of course, like with every other chance for affirmation, the danger that the opinion given by the court will not be as good as this process deserves also exists,” Varadi told daily Politika. “Chance for affirmation of international law” He said that he hopes that the judges will be able to reach a united stance that will be mentioned in legal history for years to come. “This world needs for some political appropriations to be replaced with the principality of law. If a decision is made that is expertly convincing, then it would expand the possibilities for other issues to be solved based on law in the future, and not based on political power,” Varadi said. Stating that he is not an idealist and that he knows that the role of political might will not disappear, Varadi said that just moving the border between justice and injustice slightly would be considered a success for international law.
