Romania has presented its legal opinion on the legality of Kosovo’s unilaterally declared independence to the International Court of Justice (ICJ). Romanian Ambassador to Serbia Ion Macovei told Tanjug the opinion contained an analysis by his country's legal representatives of all the relevant UN SC resolutions on Kosovo, while emphasizing adherence to resolution 1244, which, he noted, was still in force and which endorsed Serbia’s territorial integrity in line with international law and the final Helsinki Act. Romania submits opinion on Kosovo “Romania does not recognize Kosovo independence, and the Serbian people know that Romania has supported the UN General Assembly, which, at Serbia's initiative, has instructed the Foreign Ministry to take a stand on the legality of Kosovo's independence. Romania's contribution is constructive and is strictly based on law," Macovei underscored. Tanjug has learned from the Spanish embassy in Belgrade that Madrid will also be submitting its legal opinion to the ICJ. Spain will present its opinion in writing, but the contents of that document cannot be made public until it is handed over to the ICJ, the Spanish embassy said in a written statement to Tanjug. According to unofficial information, Belgrade's case will be supported by Russia, China, Spain, Slovakia, Romania, Cyprus, Georgia, Argentina, Azerbaijan, Bolivia and Venezuela. The Kosovo Albanians are likely to have the backing of the United States, Great Britain, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Finland, Denmark and Slovenia.
