Because we all know Wikipedia is the place to go for unbiased documentation of human-rights abuses.

--- Quote from: RedLion on 17 Feb 2008, 18:50 --- But while Turkey has in the past sought to stifle the Kurds' sense of self, they've never engaged in slaughter or physical repression of them, while the Kurds have been massacring Turks for decades. Sorry, but I don't think the Kurds have a case in this one.

So you would support an Armenian state, then? Or a Kurdish state within Iraq? Do you support Israel? Your support of Turkey's "territorial integrity" wouldn't make much sense otherwise.

..wait, what? I'm unsure as to what you're asking.
Anyway, back on topic--what other countries are backing Serbia on this besides China and Russia? And do we really think Russia is doing so out of 'Slavic Unity,' as its foreign minister put it a few months back, or just to spite the West?
doombilly:
Russia is backing Serbia because they have their own issues with every little cultural subset taking off and becoming their own state Chechnya, anyone?. Spain has concerns over the ETA and Basque lands. Also does not support an independent Kosovo. Taiwan does, China doesn't. See a pattern here?
--- Quote ---The situation in Kosovo is being watched closely by people elsewhere around the world who have been seeking their own states, including the Kurds in northern Iraq and the Basques in Spain. A number of such conflicts directly involve Russia, including in Chechnya, Transdniestr, South Ossetia and Abkhazia. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=10259794
