Ukraine will not recognize Kosovo in the wake of the ICJ advisory opinion delivered last week, reports from Kiev said today. The Foreign Ministry of Ukraine stated that the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) will not change Kiev's position on non-recognition of Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence, the Ukrainian edition of the Moscow-based daily Kommersant reported on Wednesday. Ukraine committed to Serbia's integrity Ukrainian Foreign Ministry Press Secretary Oleksandr Dikusarov stated in Kiev on Tuesday that Ukraine honors the principle of territorial integrity of all states within internationally recognized borders, the daily said. Relying on basic international legal documents, primarily the Charter of the United Nations, the Final Helsinki Act (1975) and the Charter of Paris (1990), Ukraine is committed to the principle of absolute respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all states with recognized international borders, Dikusarov said. Dikusarov also stated that Ukraine respects all decisions rendered by the international courts and takes into consideration the ICJ advisory opinion on Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence, the Ukrainian electronic media reported. The top UN court said last Thursday in The Hague that international law had no active provisions to prohibit unilateral independence declarations, and that therefore the Kosovo Albanian proclamation, made in early 2008 and rejected by Belgrade, was not in violation of international law. The ICJ did not give its advisory opinion on the right to secession.
