RUSYA’NIN GÜNEY OSETYA POLİTİKASI, NEO-SELF DETERMİNASYON VE UCM’NİN ROLÜ

Bu çalışma, Rusya’nın Güney Kafkasya ile ilgili hedeflerini sağlama çerçevesinde bir uluslar arası hukuk kurumu olan UCM’yi nasıl kullanmak istediğini incelemektedir. Bu çerçevede self-determinasyon ile ilgili mevcut uluslararası hukuk kurallarını temel alarak Güney Osetya’nın Gürcistan’dan ayrılmasının mümkün olmadığı açıklanmakta ve ancak Kosova örneği takip edilerek bağımsızlık ya da ilhakın gerçekleştirilebileceği gösterilmektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler:

Rusya'nın Güney Osetya Politikası, Neo-Self Determinasyon ve UCM’nin Rolü

This study examines how Russia has relied on the adjudication of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in an attempt to achieve its goals. To this end, it explains that it is impossible to secure recognition of unilateral independence of South Ossetia by making reference to the principle of self-determination and other mainstream international legal standards; however, the study recalls that independence or annexation of the breakaway region South Ossetia is possible if the pattern set forth in independence of Kosovo is followed in this particular case as well.
