Jamaica case: Political analysts say Kosovo diplomacy is arrogant

The complicated situation over the recognition and non-recognition of our country's independence from Jamaica, according to experts, should be taken as disturbing, as it undermines Kosovo's image and creates strong arguments that can be used by Serbia against our republic.

Kosovo President Hashim Thaci, yesterday through a post in Titter, announced that the state of Jamaica has recognised Kosovo's independence. But such news was exposed today by Jamaica Foreign Affairs Minister, Johnson-Smith Kamina, which said the state of Jamaica has not recognised the state of Kosovo so far.

The release of news that Jamaica has recognised Kosovo has made Kosovo the ambassador of the Republic of Kosovo to the United States, Vlora Citaku, who through e-mail has notified Kosovo's president, Hashim Thaci, prime minister, Albin Kurti, of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Diaspore, Glauk Konjufca of recognition from this state.

In addition to the Jamaican Foreign Affairs Minister's statement that this state has not recognised Kosovo's independence, Foreign and Diaspora Minister Glauk Konjufca has reacted today.

He through a post on the social network has said how the minister will take all necessary actions in accordance with each one's responsibilities.

“on the professional level, official information of an ambassador/e, addressing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, is considered a good act and considered as such. We are in constant contact with our U.S. Embassy, to clarify the situation. As Minister of Foreign Affairs and Diaspora, after reviewing the situation, it will soon take action in line with each «'s”, Conjufca wrote.

But guilty of the Jamaican non-recognition scandal, the connoisseurs of this field leave Kosovo diplomacy and state leaders, who still without getting the verbal grade for recognition from Jamaica share such news.

According to them, this situation has damaged Kosovo's image, even creating strong arguments that can be used by Serbia against Kosovo.

International Law Professor Africa Hoti until considering it a very complicated situation, says the State Minister of Jamaica's statements should be dealt with very seriously and as very disturbing.

According to him, the top leaders of Kosovo institutions who welcomed this news should show the verbal grade for recognition if they have it, on the contrary the state of Kosovo will come out very seriously.

Hoti says Kosovo leaders want to take credit for recognising the state of Kosovo are rushing to come up with such statements that harm the country.

This beyond the Jamaican Foreign Minister's statement called, raises the alarm for political leaders in Kosovo who should once and for all understand that governance with the country should not be expressed through emotion, but should be expressed through a consolidated system and submit with written documents. Knowing a government by another government is done through a formal act that can be of different kinds from formal recognition or other ways of communication. But without providing those documents, I think it's urgent because the leaders appointed to the name of once very hard-on bridge rivalry and really very emotional ones try to appear as smug in the sense of who works most and who really is providing recognition to Kosovo. I think this practice should definitely be closed and that the personality that has promoted recognition by Jamaica should do the same by presenting accurate and written evidence that the Jamaican government has really taken the step or decision to recognise Kosovo. On the contrary, if this is not the situation, we risk not being serious and that such decisions can be returned to us “, he said.

The recogniser of international law says this recognition or non-recognition by the Jamaican state has given a powerful argument to Serbian diplomacy to continue its tough campaign to attract recognitions of states that have already recognised Kosovo citizenship.

Such an act, he even says, has damaged Kosovo's political but legal image.

The country's <x0) political and international judicial decisions are greatly damaged as long as we have the statements of the three institutional leaders in recognition, I think we should really be careful not to fall into such traps for the fact that such traps can become a bomerang in the sense of using as a compromise argument from the opposite side here, I mean the Republic of Serbia, which in response now has organised and is continuing with the campaign for attracting recognitions and international prosecution of the Kosovo statute. We should definitely be careful not to repeat such situations to us... it is a topic ready to be used by Serbian diplomas, not only by being used in various events, at the Security Council meeting, but also in bilateral contacts or bilateral reports to states from which they require recognition, the dilemmas for not recognising Jamaica will be used as arguments by Serbs for countries who have scepticism on their decision<1>, Hoti stressed.

Artan Demhay from the organisation Hira said this situation for the recognition and non-recognition of the state of Kosovo by the state of Jamaica shows that Kosovo has a <x0ndjicare “”.

Demhasa says about Kosova Prees, that no host of Kosovo institutions should give such news without getting the document proving that recognition.

The “is a greedy diplomacy that usually both ambassadors but also senior host of institutions in Kosovo from the haste of which to go out and deliver the first news of recognition or not of a country rushed and talk about recognition on the part of Jamaica without receiving an official document showing recognition. There should be no host of institutions in Kosovo to come out and deliver such news to the public because it could be a public deinforation without obtaining recognition on the basis of official documents. So this shows again what level of diplomacy we have today when giving news even the president gives such news“, he said.

The recogniser of political issues even says it is possible that delivering news that Kosovo's citizenship is recognised by the state of Jamaica has hampered the process.

The question of Kosovo's recognition is likely in the process on Jamaica's side, but it has not yet been official because we have not received that note that shows that Kosovo has been recognised by Jamaica and at such moments when we have published such news yet without receiving the document telling of Kosovo's recognition it can especially harm this process. Because Jamaica has already been able to do that even if she has planned for Kosovo's recognition the moment she has seen the news without giving her diplomatic note of recognition then she may even regret it in a way. Because of a rush that we have today by specific individuals of political and institutional leadership that could influence that we could lose a recognition we could have had during the coming week”, Demhaja stressed.

Kosova Prerss during the day has attempted to receive an answer from Kosovo's ambassador to America, V Lora Citaku, to clarify the situation created about Kosovo's recognition or non-recognition by Jamaica, but the latter has not responded.

Unrecognition by Jamaica has created numerous reactions, even the deputy of the Vetevendosje Movement, Victory Pacolli, also called for the dismissal of Kosovo Ambassador to the US Vlora Citaku.
