Statement by Foreign Minister Masahiko Koumura on the
Recognition of the Republic of Kosovo
March 18, 2008
On March 18, Japan recognized the Republic of Kosovo as an independent
state. As the Government of the Republic of Kosovo has made its intention
clear that it will run the country pursuant to the "Comprehensive Proposal
for the Kosovo Status Settlement" made by the U.N. Special Envoy, Japan
expects that Kosovo's independence will contribute to the long-lasting
stability of the region.
Japan has traditionally good relations with the Republic of Serbia
and it has no intention to make its recognition of Kosovo impede the
friendly relations with Serbia. Japan hopes that such friendly relations
with Serbia will be continued.
