On Sunday, February 17th 2008, the Declaration of Independence was read at 15:39 in the Kosovo Assembly.
Independent Kosovo immediately began to be recognised by friendly states.
But, seventeen years after declaring independence, Kosovo is in diplomatic oblivion known by many states, but outside some of the most important international organisations.
The last country he recognized was Israel in 2021. That recognition was part of the Washington Agreement between Kosovo and Serbia. Before her, the last country to recognize her was Barbados in 2018. But the intensity of recognition began to decline since 2015.
The 17th anniversary of the Republic of Kosovo's declaration of Independence will be marked with many activities organised by central and local institutions.
