The much-awaited ICJ advisory opinion on Kosovo will be released on July 22 at 3 p.m (local Hague time):
On Thursday 22 July 2010, the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the principal judicial organ of the United Nations, will deliver its Advisory Opinion on the question of the Accordance with International Law of the Unilateral Declaration of Independence by the Provisional Institutions of Self-Government of Kosovo (request for advisory opinion).
UPDATE: Very fast out of the box, EJIL Talk!’s Marko Milanovic has a long post introducing the issues facing the ICJ in the case.
THERE IS NO UNIFICATION IN THE WORLD! THERE IS ONLY SEPARATION IN THE WORLD: SINCE 1990, 33 NEW COUNTRIES EXISTED BY THE SEPARATION OF FEDERATIONS, CONFEDERATIONS, COUNTRIES (EVEN THE SAME RACED, SAME RELIGIONED, SAME LANGUAGED SERBIA-MONTENEGRO!)

Serbia-Montenegro = 29 Montenegro + 30 Serbia
31 Kosovo (Serbia).
Georgia = 32 Gerorgia + 33 Abhasia + 34 South Ossetia AND GOES ON….
Perhaps you could have a post to invite scholars to give their predictions on the Advisory Opinion? It would be interesting to see who gets it right.
