/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "On June 12 western participants of the Contact
Group held a session on Kosovo without Russia's participation in
the so-called "fifth" format (Germany, Great Britain, Italy, USA
and France).
Russia was not invited to participate in that session.
This fact does not stick to declarative statements of our partners on
their readiness to continue the process of looking for compromise
resolutions. Secret discussions suggest the idea of preparing
unilateral scenarios for Kosovo's independence," Russian MFA official
representative Mikhail Kaminin commented on the session of the western
"fifth" regarding Kosovo.
Kaminin is sure that at the meeting one more time the "fifth" has
expressed its support for the Ahtisaari Plan as a single possible way
out for the resolution on Kosovo in the UN Security Council. "Such an
approach is unacceptable for Russia. We strongly support the offer
to continue talks between Belgrade and Prishtina aimed at finding
a compromise on the status of the province. The UN Security Council
may approve only such a variant," the statement underlines, the RF
Press Office reports.
In his part Spokesman for the French MFA Jean-Baptiste Mattei stated
that the meeting between western five countries without Russia's
participation does not mean to exclude Moscow from discussion over
Kosovo's future in any account. "We really want to closely cooperate
with Russia," Mattei underlined. He said, the resolution of granting
Serbian Province Kosovo independence must be carried out in organized
manner with the participation of UN. "We fully support the Marti
Ahtisaari Plan. There must be no doubts in it," Mattei said, BBC
Russian Service reports.
