As expected, the Kosovan parliament met today at 1400 GMT and declared independence for Kosova. A number of SNP members I know have a bottle put aside to open on our independence day, at least as you can see above I was able to open my Kosovan Raki sooner than ours but our indepednece day is coming yet.
The vote was, happily, unanimous amongst the Kosovan MPs, who now go on to form a state. Kosova will have many problems short, mediaum and long term, but my fingers are crossed for them. We will doubtless have a session in Strasbourg this week on this and the world's response to it.
The big issue is that the Kosovans themselves have the chance to prove themselves able. The whole point to independence, for anyone, is that there are no more excuses.
