while i was digging dfa's website of some information for my passport renewal i saw the statement issued by our government regarding our stand on the kosovo declaration of independence you can read it here in full... it was just right that we did not recognized such action... peace!
"While the Philippines does not oppose the idea of Independence of Kosovo, it would prefer a settlement of the issue as embodied within both parties' obligation under UN Security Council Resolution 1244, taking into account the internationally accepted principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The Philippines believes that a lasting solution, including that of independence, should be based on a negotiated solution mutually acceptable to all parties. Considering the existing sensibilities in the region, continued dialogue should be encouraged among all the parties concerned to ensure regional stability."
