Kouchner meets Serbian students
Law and political science students were able to choose topics of the debate, asking the French foreign minister whether giving independence to Kosovo might destabilize the Balkans and the European Union, and whether creating new countries within existing ones could genuinely solve interior problems of states.Kouchner replied that there was no other solution but that outlined in Ahtisaari’s plan, or “if there were other options, Serbia was the one to seek them out.”
“Serbs are smart, wise, they bear the burden of history. But they failed to provide a solution and immediately said ‘no’ [to Ahtisaari’s plan]. Well, our answer is ’yes’, and since the international comunity’s opinion carries a lot of clout, it could hardly be that we are not right on this,” Kouchner said.
