CASE STUDY: KOSOVO Roxana Alina PETRARU* Abstract: The complexio of the national minoriy rights lies in combining the human rights and fundamental freedoms and the rights specific to this categoy. While the former are universal, the extended ones meet a set of principles and obligations incumbent upon states and translate into rights, facilities and specfic measures for the benefit of persons belonging to minorities. (Chablais, (2007), .57) International documents protecting the rights of national minorities do not refer to collective rights. Paragraph 31 of the Explanatoy Report to the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities states that the document adopted b the Council of Europe refers to the protection of national minorities and, as such, to the rights and freedoms of persons belonging to such minorities. This distinction and difference in wording clear4 indicates that recognition of collective rights of national minorities is not envisaged. Also, an anajysis of the practice of bodies established by the European Convention on Human Rights, says that group rights are excluded because they are too vague, substantialjy and proceduraljy impracticable.
