Below is a nonsense statement from the UN administration in Kosovo which states that "the demarcation of the border with Macedonia need not wait until Kosova's final status is resolved" but "that UNMIK does not have a mandate to decide on demarcation lines.
They have said just enough to get all sides upset, but no suggestion on how to solve the problem. Pathetic!
The UN civilian administration in Kosova (UNMIK) said on 16 May that the demarcation of the border with Macedonia need not wait until Kosova's final status is resolved, RFE/RL's Macedonian subunit reported. He added, however, that UNMIK does not have a mandate to decide on demarcation lines, which is the prerogative of states. The spokesman's remarks were aimed at correcting a recent statement by one of his colleagues, who said that the border cannot be demarcated before Kosova's final status is decided because neither UNMIK nor the current Kosovar institutions have a mandate to deal with demarcation (see "RFE/RL Newsline," 2 February and 13 and 16 May 2005).
