"We hope our friends and allies in the west take a firm position on the inapplicability of the Kosovo case to Georgia. In other words, Kosovo is sui generis," Lado Gurgenidze, Georgia’s prime minister, told the Financial Times in an interview.
He was referring to the risk that if the US and most European Union member-states recognize Kosovo’s independence, Russia might retaliate by recognizing Abkhazia and South Ossetia, two Russian-backed separatist enclaves in Georgia. Mr Gurgenidze won support for his position on Kosovo on Thursday from Benita Ferrero-Waldner, the EU’s external relations commissioner. Commissioner noted that Russia should understand that Kosovo precedent will spread to the Caucasus. European Union does not believe that Russia will rerecognise unrecognized republics./APA/
