In February 2008, Kosovo declared
In February 2008, Kosovo declared independence from Serbia. But was it legal? And is Kosovo a state? In 2010, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) presented its Advisory Opinion on Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence (UDI) from Serbia. Although it is the most important ruling the Court has ever made on secession, there is considerable confusion about what the Court really said. For example, did it say that Kosovo is a state - as many now claim?

Kosovo's declaration of independence from Serbia in February 2008 bitterly divided the international community. While it was supported by the United States and most of the European Union, it was opposed by Russia, China and a number of other countries around the world. In the months that followed, Serbia took the issue of Kosovo's UDI before the United Nations General Assembly and asked for an advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice on the legality of the declaration of independence. This was delivered on 22 July 2010. In its Opinion, the Court was clear that the declaration did not in fact violate general international law. However, it was also explicit that it took no position on whether Kosovo was an independent state. Nor did the Court question the legality of the decision of countries to recognise Kosovo as a country. This in turn raises an important issue. Did Serbia in fact ask the ICJ the wrong question?
