Radovan Karadzic, Sarajevo is not your city, and you have no right to say that it is, just as you do not have the right to say in public, even if it’s in court, that someone has dug up bones around Bosnia and brought them to Srebrenica to make a fake graveyard. This is insulting.
Kosovo Seeks Support At Islamic Summit
| 12 March 2008 |
Minister Enver Hoxhaj
Before leaving for Dakar, Hoxhaj told media that “This summit provides a good opportunity for Kosovo to present itself on the international scene.”
"The main goal of our participation in the summit is to show that Kosovo’s problem that has been not solved for a century and is merely a European problem and in no way can be compared with other regions in Africa or Asia," he added.
Earlier last month, the General Secretariat of the Islamic Conference welcomed Kosovo's declaration of independence from Serbia, and most of its member states are expected to take individual decisions on recognition soon.
Some Muslim countries, such as Azerbaijan and Indonesia have already said they will not recognise the independence of Kosovo, claiming that it will serve as a precedent for separatist regions in their countries.
Senegal is the first African country to have recognised the Republic of Kosovo and sought to establish diplomatic relations with the new independent state.
Meanwhile, Kosovo’s Deputy Prime Minister stated this week that “by the end of the year, Kosovo will have more than twenty embassies abroad.”
