Romania will not change its stance regarding Kosovo's independence, because it is a matter of principle, Romanian Foreign Minister Teodor Baconschi said in Bucharest.
A unilateral act cannot turn an area into an independent state, Baconschi said at a briefing for European journalists.
Along with Spain, Greece, Slovakia and Cyprus, Romania is one of five EU countries that have not recognized Kosovo's unilaterally declared independence. With the exception of Cyprus, these states are also NATO members.
Minister Baconschi noted that things in Kosovo cannot go back to the way they were, but that Romania hopes Belgrade and Pristina will be able to cooperate and normalize relations for the benefit of stability in the Western Balkans, reported Rome-based news agency Apcom.

Romanian governmet are known to act against the will of their people, scringing and crawling like parasites on matters tehy dont know about at all. Romanian nationals come live and work in kosovo but in the other hand, they do not recognise the country. Well, only a leech when gets stuck on your skin acts like that. If romania was not corrupted, would it recognise a country knowing that it would relieve people off conflict and make peace by that act? of course it would.
