BHV - Duur van de splitsingsprocedure

[De schoofzak]

Oorspronkelijk geplaatst door John Stufflebeam

De Europese resolutie van 16 december 1991 legt de voorwaarden vast voor onafhankelijkheid. Wie wil onafhankelijk worden, ondehandelt met de EU over de punten en kommas van de procedure (modaliteiten van het referendum, internationale verdragen, timing van de onafhankelijkheid).

Dus als de Vlaamse politiek de onafhankelijkheid wil uitroepen, dan stoppen de onderhandelingen met Franstalig België, en starten de onderhandelingen met de Europese Commissie.

Gold dat niet voor delen van niet-lidstaten die zich willen afscheuren van de oude moederstaat, èn lid willen worden van de EU ???

Ik vraag het maar, want ik weet het niet.

En aangezien gij ermee voor de pinnen komt, moet gij linken en/of artikelen in serieuze juridische publikaties hebben.

Uti Possidetis Juris: From Rome to Kosovo

Onderaan de link vind je een interessant lijstje referenties. Dit weekend ga ik nog wat referenties posten over de juridische precedenten inzake onafhankelijkheid en het ontstaan van enclaves (Kalingrad) en taalkundige minderheden (Russisch sprekende meerderheid in de Krim, Oekraïne).

International legal response to the dissolution of Yugoslavia is invariably linked to the French lawyer, Robert Badinter, who headed up the Arbitration Commission--a group of European jurists set up by the European Union in 1991 to arbitrate disputes and establish criteria for recognition. [FN36] The Commission based its ruling with regard to Yugoslavia on the elementary assumptions of international law and politics. It characterized sovereign states as those entities that, inter alia, fulfill the essential criteria for international statehood, i.e., possess territory, population, and a government in control of its territory and population. In its judgment, the Commission relied heavily on African experience in general and on the ICJ ruling in Burkina Faso v. Republic of Mali in particular, in effect extending the African precedent and standards it had set over to a quite different social and political milieu.

In its opinion, the Badinter Commission declared that "whatever the circumstances, except where the states concerned agree otherwise, the right to self-determination must not involve changes to existing frontiers existing at the time of independence (uti possidetis juris)." In line with this, the Commission stressed that "except where otherwise agreed, former republican borders [the internal borders between Serbia and Croatia and between Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina] become international frontiers protected by international law." [FN37] This stance reflected the notion of respecting territorial status quo (the "photograph of territory" in Burkina Faso v. Republic of Mali) and the uti possidetis principle itself, which--according to the Commission-- was supposed to prevent territorial conflicts arising among newly independent states that emerged from the former Yugoslavia. [FN38]

In making its determination, the Commission assumed that conflicts over territories could be prevented only through recognition of former administrative *92 borders as international ones, which would then be protected by Article 2(4) of the UN Charter. [FN39] This assumption reflected political aims of European leaders who insisted that, following the June 1991 declarations of independence by Croatia and Slovenia, only the federal republics of Yugoslavia would be invested with the right to self- determination.

The same attitude, by analogy, extended to the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia and was endorsed by the December 16, 1991, statement of the European Community (now, the European Union) that established a series of guidelines establishing the conditions that had to be met before new states could be recognized as independent. Former Soviet republics accepted this formally in 1993, stating that uti possidetis juris would be a valid solution to territorial disputes between them. [FN40]

En alle Belgische bezittingen, gebouwen en schulden, enz.. daar moet niet intern Belgisch over onderhandeld worden?

Nee.

Federaal vastgoed in Vlaanderen wordt automatisch eigendom van de Vlaamse republiek. De rest (staatschuld, ambassadegebouwen) kan na de onafhankelijkheid verdeeld worden. Dat kan door rechtstreekse, bilaterale onderhandelingen of door EU arbitrage.
