“A majority of the UN (117 out of 193) recognize Kosovo as an independent state.”

I guess I missed the BINDING VOTE, the one in the Security Council. Could you provide a link to that please.

Nothing angers a neocon more than the presence of Russia and China on the UN Security Council.

Your original comment was: “KOSOVO IS PART OF SERBIA and until the UN changes that…”

I merely pointed out that 117 of 193 UN members have recognized Kosovo as an independent nation. I said nothing about its being a member of the UN. I am unaware of any UNSC vote of recognition, probably because everyone knew Russia would veto it.

At present, although Kosovo is not an official member of the UN, it is a member or an applicant in scores of international organizations as an independent nation, as the Republic of Kosovo.

However, the UNSC did authorize KFOR:
