Політика балканських країн щодо визначення статусу Косово

The paper deals with stages of formation and implementation of Balkans states policy on Kosovo status determination. At the stage of former Yugoslavia dissolution most Balkan States were concerned about their own boundaries and European prospects. Changes in politics towards Kosovo status determination have occurred after the Dayton Peace Accords and the creation of Kosovo Liberation Army. The war in Kosovo created an additional threat to territorial integrity of Greece, Serbia, Macedonia, Montenegro. The recognition of Kosovo's independence depended on Balkan States politics in the context of European Union and NATO membership or participation in the membership action plan.
