“Kosovo independent by summer”

However, Rohan told the newspaper he agreed the situation in Kosovo, although currently stable, was so volatile any incident could spark off more serious violence.

“The sooner we have a decision, the better. We oppose unreasonable delays,” Rohan said.

Rohan explained he expected negotiations over a new Kosovo resolution to take place during May, while the resolution itself would be adopted at the end of that month.

“In any case, Kosovo should be independent before the summer,” he added.

Rohan told the daily Ahtisaari’s proposal “had no alternative”, as well as that after eight years of uncertainty Kosovo’s status needed to be resolved.

“Milošević is the one who lost Kosovo, everybody knows this. The fault is not with the current Serbian leadership and this fact needs to be faced at last,” Rohan said.

Rohan also said he did not believe Russia would reach for its veto in a council session discussing a new Kosovo resolution.

“Permanent Security Council member states have been responsible in the past, rarely using their veto powers,” Rohan explained.
