Jump To Comment: 1 2 3The recent peaceful independence of Kosovo is an example to the world.
Basque terrorists are no hopers - Basque independence can only be achieved by negotiation and patient democratic politics.
It also demonstrates that no nation can impose itself on a minority that do not want to part of it.
The majority 26 counties do not want to be part of the UK.
Conversely the majority in the 6 counties do not want to be part of the Irish republic.
Kosovo is not and never will be an independent country, it is no more than a NATO/US/mafia base and will (sooner rather than later) seek incorporation into Albania.
Basque independence will never be granted by the Spanish state as it stands- the Franco-friendly consitution authorises the army to invade if any move is made - check the facts.
It also demonstrates that no nation can impose itself on a minority that do not want to part of it.
Agreed , the by that argument the brits should leave Ireland immediately, or are you confusing a sectarian partitioned statelets with a "nation" - this is the 21st century, not the 17th. When a referendum on independence isheld in 32 county Ireland and Euskal Herria you can come back with your touchingly innocent analysis.
