Press movement for recognition of Kosovo independence, MP Goncharenko hands over resolution to Ukraine's Parliament

Ukraine's MP, Olexiy Goncharenko, has submitted a draft resolution to the legislature yesterday, calling for Ukraine to recognise Kosovo's independence.

MP Goncharenko has made his initiative on the social Twitter network public, writing that he hopes Ukraine will recognise Kosovo's independence as soon as possible.

I handed over to the Ukrainian Parliament a resolution to recognise Kosovo's independence. Ukraine shares Western values and will support democracy worldwide. I hope Ukraine will recognise Kosovo's independence as soon as possible”, he wrote.

MP Goncharenko has also made another Facebook post regarding the proposed draft resolution, saying Kosovo's declaration of independence has violated international law and the state is recognised by 22 EU nations, as well as by the United States, Great Britain of Canada.

He has said further that a consistent step forward by Ukraine would be recognition of Kosovo's independence.

In 2010, the UN International Court of Justice acknowledged that Kosovo's declaration of state sovereignty does not conflict with international law norms, violates no resolution and international act. No wonder, 22 of the 27 EU member states we try for have already recognised Kosovo. Kosovo is also recognised by the United States, Canada and Great Britain. Therefore, a consistent step by Ukraine will now be recognition of Kosovo's state sovereignty and the expression of international support. Reject a different kind of manipulation between Ukraine and why the republic “LDNR” is not the same situation in Kosovo and Serbia. This is when Kosovo actually has the right to independence”, he has said.
