Ghana reaffirms recognition of Kosovo and relations with Kosovo

Accra, Ghana – In a significant diplomatic development, Jetlir Zyberaj, acting as a special envoy of former President Behgjet Pacolli, held an official and productive meeting with President John Dramani Mahama at the presidential palace, Jubilee House, in Accra. Mr. Zyberaj published an picture with President Mahama of Ghana in his presidential office. Paint Ghana green in the map and if not done put it in the recognition list - also delete part on the page where Ghana has withdrawn recognition!

Another, more recent, source for reaffirmed recognition [1] - ILBobby (talk) 00:52, 18 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I’ve spent several hours reviewing all currently available sources on article and talk page, and looking for additional materials about Ghana’s position (and a few other countries, such as Maldives, Guinea-Bissau, Saint Lucia, Togo or Gabon). Here’s what I found for Ghana:
We have credible evidence of Ghana’s official withdrawal of recognition of Kosovo. The withdrawal was announced by a representative of Ghana’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and an official note was published. [2][3][4][5]
However, there are no reliable sources showing that Ghana later reversed or annulled this decision. Both sides in the dispute sometimes make unverified claims: Serbia often cites withdrawals later denied by third parties (e.g., the Maldives), while Kosovo dismisses as “propaganda” even those withdrawals that are well-documented by official statements or documents (e.g., Togo). Statements by politicians on either side (Serbian or Kosovan), such as this [6], unless backed by official documents or confirmed by the party concerned, cannot be treated as reliable evidence.
As for the accreditation of the Ghanaian embassy [7], this looks like a routine administrative delay — something we’ve also seen in other cases (e.g. SADR). Such omissions do not prove that the withdrawal didn’t happen. The list in question was published by Kosovo, which naturally has no reason to remove outdated entries. Notably, the Togo embassy still appeared there in 2022, even though it clearly revoked recognition in 2019 and confirmed that revocation as a “definitive decision” in 2023.
The wording in the Albanian President’s post that they met to confirm recognition [8] is not evidence of an official renewal of Ghana’s diplomatic recognition of Kosovo.
We only have two posts here from Kosovan and Albanian politicians, who have provided no evidence to support their claims. For example, Guinea-Bissau officially annulled its withdrawal of recognition, while Ghana itself still has not provided a single piece of evidence (for more than six years) that it has reversed its withdrawal of recognition. Unless a credible, verifiable source shows that Ghana has reversed its withdrawal, Ghana should not be listed among the countries recognizing Kosovo.

Antigua and Barbuda recognize Kosovo

The Head of State of Antigua and Barbuda, Governor-General Sir Rodney Williams, and First Lady Sandra Williams, came today to an official visit to the Republic of Kosovo. Remove the claims of Serbia in the article that state that Antigua and Barbuda have withdrawn their recognition. Antigua and Barbuda do recognize the Republic of Kosova this state visit confirms it.

Surinam

Honestly, I don’t understand why Suriname was removed from the list of countries that have withdrawn their recognition of Kosovo. We have a clear source stating that recognition was withdrawn on October 27, 2017. Afterwards, a meeting took place (on June 10, 2022), which in no explicit way confirmed formal recognition. Similar meetings and discussions are often held by representatives of Palestine or the SADR with countries that do not formally recognize them. On July 25, 2023, Suriname reaffirmed its position from 2017. This country should therefore be moved back to the appropriate category. Jan CZ (talk) 18:19, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide a recent note verbal from the government of Suriname that they have withdrawn recognition. If you cannot provide such a document, the recognition still stands. Dn9ahx (talk) 20:06, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A considerable portion of the information in this article (and in similar ones) originates from sources in Kosovo, Palestine, or the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, which have not been verified or corroborated by the respective states. Accepting sources exclusively from these entities, while simultaneously rejecting those from Israel, Morocco, or Serbia, constitutes a violation of the principle of neutrality.
The lack of neutrality is particularly evident in this article, even in the way certain sections are titled.
With regard to Suriname, official Surinamese sources clearly state that Suriname recognizes Serbia’s territorial integrity (and therefore no longer recognizes Kosovo — just as Tuvalu does not recognize Abkhazia).
It is deeply concerning how facts in this article are being distorted in an apparent effort to promote Kosovo. Some editors appear to act more as advocates than as independent contributors striving to provide readers with an accurate and neutral representation of reality.
An official source from the Surinamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs shows that Suriname has recognized the territorial integrity of Serbia and can be found here: Surinam posiluje spolupráci se Srbskem. Jan CZ (talk) 04:20, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
No where in the source does it explicitly state that Suriname has revoked recognition of Kosovo. A statement about "respecting Serbia's territorial integrity" does not mean the same thing as countries who recognise Kosovo as an Independent state still respect Serbia's territorial integrity / sovereignty over Central Serbia and Vojvodina (i.e. without Kosovo).Dn9ahx (talk) 12:06, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This statement is incorrect. Recognition of a state’s territorial integrity in such a context means recognition of that state’s borders as it claims them — in this particular case, Serbia, including Kosovo. Support for territorial integrity is always mentioned in such contexts precisely in relation to the rejection of claims by entities such as Abkhazia or Kosovo — that is, as a rejection of their independence. Jan CZ (talk) 14:32, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As Dn9ahx has already pointed out, that source does not explicitly say that Suriname has revoked its recognition of Kosovo. Unless a reliable source explicitly states that it has, our own extrapolations and interpretations are of no relevance and do not belong on the article. Botushali (talk) 14:49, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Your statement is merely a reflection of your limited knowledge of international law. Sources show that Suriname does not recognize Kosovo. https://www.kosovo-online.com/vesti/politika/orlic-odlukom-da-povuce-priznanje-kosova-surinam-postao-primer-za-druge-zemlje-25-7 Suriname verstevigt samenwerking met Servië Jan CZ (talk) 17:03, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
We have clear and reliable sources confirming that Suriname officially revoked its recognition of Kosovo in 2017 Document waarin Suriname de erkenning van Kosovo introk, is gepubliceerd - Insajderi. At the same time, we have no credible information indicating that Suriname has officially changed its position since then. The documented meeting MFA Kosova 🇽🇰 on X: "DPM/FM @gervallaschwarz met w/Surinamese Foreign Minister Ramdin on the margins of the IX Summit of the Americas in Los Angeles. Both sides agreed to enhance cooperation between 🇽🇰and🇸🇷 in many fields. @MOFASur. https://t.co/y2fVkeaOJf" / X makes no mention of any official change in stance. While general statements about strengthening cooperation are interesting, they cannot be interpreted as an official restoration of diplomatic recognition. Therefore, if you claim that Suriname now officially recognizes Kosovo, please provide concrete proof. Jan CZ (talk) 17:42, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Countries which have recognised Kosovo as an independent state - supplementing the table

It would be valuable to supplement the table of recognizing states with an additional column providing more details. Many countries have shifted their positions on Kosovo's recognition over time, yet the table currently reflects only the present situation, entirely omitting the historical record. This is unfortunate, as the article deals with a historical topic, and changes in states’ stances—such as Guinea-Bissau’s—are both interesting and relevant, and should be reflected directly in the table. Jan CZ (talk) 05:16, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Changing the table to the format seen at International recognition of Palestine and at International recognition of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic would be a good idea. I have neither the time nor energy to make such a change, but if you are willing to do it, be my guest. Dn9ahx (talk) 12:11, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I agree change it to the format of International recognition of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic and/or to the International recognition of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. That's better that way in those formats. YDMC188 (talk) 01:12, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have updated the table according to our discussion. Most importantly, I added the missing column on diplomatic relations, which is an interesting piece of information and appears in other articles as well. In the notes section, I included membership in international organizations. There’s no need to list as many as in the case of Palestine, where it’s somewhat excessive, but the EU, NATO, and OIC are certainly relevant organizations in the context of Kosovo. As for withdrawals of recognition, I have so far added only Palau and moved the notes for Liberia and Oman. I will gradually add further information on possible withdrawals and renewals of recognition for other countries.
Please take a look at the table to see if it works for you. I believe it will provide readers with more comprehensive information, all meaningfully presented in one place for each individual country. Thank you for your cooperation. Jan CZ (talk) 07:57, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It’s not that great. It needs to be just like the format of International recognition of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic and International recognition of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. Palestine is a different issue. The other three above format are what’s needed here. Ok. YDMC188 (talk) 10:05, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Burkina Faso

We currently have Burkina listed only here: Other recognition withdrawal claims by Serbia. And that entry does not cite any specific sources relating directly to this country. However, from the press conference attended by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Regional Cooperation and Burkinabe Abroad of Burkina Faso, it is clear that the recognition was indeed withdrawn Dačić s Rouambou: Stažení uznání Kosova ze strany Burkiny Faso je velmi důležité - Kosovo Online Minister Dacic meets with the Foreign Minister of Burkina Faso | Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Moreover, I have not found any source indicating that Burkina has since resumed its recognition. Jan CZ (talk) 19:21, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lesotho

The revocation of Kosovo’s recognition by Lesotho is documented by an official note — even a publicly released one. We have relevant and verifiable documentation of the revocation [9]. An answer to a question from a Kosovar journalist [10], or merely a meeting with the King of Lesotho in Dubai during a UN climate conference [11], cannot in any way serve as evidence that the revocation did not take place. From a legal standpoint, these events are completely irrelevant to the matter. Unfortunately, this demonstrates how sources and facts are being handled on that article. Jan CZ (talk) 20:12, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable sources

I would like to respectfully ask the editors of this article to refrain from removing important sources on this topic under the pretext that they are unreliable. In all articles of this type, we predominantly — and often exclusively — rely on sources from the two parties directly involved in the conflict, rather than from a third party affected by the issue, or from any neutral fourth side. It is not acceptable for sources from one side of the conflict to be accepted uncritically, while those from the other are summarily rejected. We must work with the sources that are available. Some pro-Kosovo editors tend to label Serbian sources as propaganda and attempt to demonstrate their unreliability, for example under the table of withdrawn recognitions. A typical example is when Serbian sources report a new withdrawal of recognition, and Kosovo sources subsequently present evidence that the recognition remains in place — which is then cited as proof of the alleged unreliability of Serbian sources. However, a closer examination of many such cases indicates that these inconsistencies are not necessarily the result of deliberate misinformation by either the Serbian or the Kosovo side, but rather of inconsistent policies pursued by certain states. For instance, since 1994, when Malawi recognized the SADR, it has changed its position seven times. Some countries adjust their stance with each change of government, due to a lack of political consensus between the ruling party and the opposition — as is the case, for example, in Somalia. Others practice what can be described as “chequebook diplomacy,” with the same government shifting positions depending on current offers from the parties involved. It is also quite common for officials to make statements that merely reflect what their current hosts wish to hear. Nevertheless, in the section below the table, the article presents these developments in a one-sided manner, implying that every policy change by various countries serves as evidence of the unreliability of Serbian sources. As a result of this selective interpretation, almost all Serbian sources reporting withdrawals of recognition have been removed, while only Kosovo sources remain — often showing that years after a withdrawal, recognition and relations were restored. This approach cannot be regarded as neutral. For example, why are there no sources provided for Guinea-Bissau’s withdrawal of recognition? This omission is difficult to understand. Instead of such one-sidedly sourced and commented sections, we should present readers with basic factual information in the table of recognizing states — specifically, when Guinea-Bissau withdrew its recognition and when it subsequently restored it. Readers can then make up their own minds about whether the narratives of either side constitute propaganda. Accepting sources exclusively from one side of the conflict is unacceptable and results in a highly subjective presentation of this issue within the article. Jan CZ (talk) 06:07, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

São Tomé and Príncipe

São Tomé and Príncipe should be included in the total count among those that have already granted recognition (and later withdrew it). The country is rightly listed among these states here Kosovo Thanks You – Thank you from the Kosovar people!: Although São Tomé later declared that the recognition had not been granted in a legitimate manner. Subsequent questioning of certain legal acts of this kind is common — for instance, Guatemala now claims that it never recognized the SADR. However, this does not change the fact that recognition was indeed granted at the time and, from the perspective of international law the recognition was official and valid.

According to well-established international practice and the Articles on Responsibility of States for Internationally Wrongful Acts (adopted by the UN International Law Commission), the rule is that: A state is internationally responsible for the acts of its organs, regardless of whether those organs acted within their domestic competence. In other words: -If a person appears to act as an organ of the state (for example, a president, foreign minister, or ambassador), their act is attributable to the state even if, under domestic law, they exceeded their authority. In practical terms: -If, for instance, the President of a republic issues a declaration -recognizing another state — and the other party accepts it in good faith — then the act is valid under international law. Even if, under the constitution, such a declaration should have been approved by parliament or co-signed by the prime minister, that is a domestic irregularity, not a ground for invalidity in international law.

Such an act might later be contested or sanctioned domestically (for example, impeachment, resignation, or annulment by a constitutional court), but internationally it remains valid and effective — it can be withdrawn formally, but not retroactively annulled. Jan CZ (talk) 06:47, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have found no evidence of that sir. YDMC188 (talk) 10:01, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
"The conduct of an organ of a State or of a person or entity empowered to exercise elements of the gov ernmental authority shall be considered an act of the State under international law if the organ, person or entity acts in that capacity, even if it exceeds its author ity or contravenes instructions" [12]
"International law is not concerned with the internal constitutional distribution of powers within a State. Acts done by persons having the appearance of authority will normally be treated as acts of the State itself, even where, according to internal law, such persons may have exceeded their powers"
[[13]
"Under international law a State is responsible for the acts of its agents undertaken in their official capacity and for their omissions, even when those agents act outside the sphere of their authority or violate internal law"[14] Jan CZ (talk) 18:41, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That doesn’t change anything at all. YDMC188 (talk) 21:46, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It shows that the recognition granted by São Tomé and Príncipe [15] was valid under international law, regardless of the alleged overreach of authority that São Tomé and Príncipe began to claim almost a year after he had officially given his recognition.

Republic of Somaliland about Kosovo Recogntion

The Republic of Somaliland Commends Kenya’s Recognition of Kosovo and Urges Consideration of Somaliland’s Sovereign Rights. 

Mar 28, 2025

Hargeisa, 28th March 2025 - The Government of the Republic of Somaliland conveys its sincere congratulations to the Government and people of the Republic of Kosovo on the occasion of Kenya’s official recognition of Kosovo’s independence. This bold and forward-looking decision by the Republic of Kenya is a testament to its unwavering commitment to the principles of international law, the right to self-determination, and the promotion of international peace and stability. 

The Republic of Somaliland having upheld peace, democratic governance, and effective state institutions for over three decades shares with Kosovo a parallel trajectory grounded in the legitimate expression of sovereign will and the fulfilment of the established criteria for statehood under international law. Somaliland notes with appreciation the legal precedent set by the International Court of Justice regarding Kosovo’s declaration of independence, and affirms the relevance of this precedent in the context of Somaliland’s enduring pursuit of international recognition.

In this spirit, the Republic of Somaliland encourages the Government of Kenya to adopt a similarly principled and historic decision by formally recognizing Somaliland’s sovereignty. Such a step would not only reaffirm Kenya’s leadership in regional diplomacy and multilateral engagement but also serve to strengthen bilateral relations and contribute to lasting peace, stability, and cooperation across the Horn of Africa.

Your Excellency, On the occasion of the Independence Day of the Republic of Kosovo, I have the honor to convey to Your Excellency, and through you to the Government and the people of the Republic of Kosovo, my warmest congratulations and sincere best wishes on behalf of the Government and the people of the Federal Republic of Somalia. This important national anniversary stands as a symbol of Kosovo's resilience and its steadfast commitment to sovereignty, democratic governance, and the promotion of peace and prosperity. I commend the progress achieved under Your Excellency's leadership and express my earnest wishes for the continued stability, development, and success of your country. The Federal Republic of Somalia highly values the friendly relations and mutual respect that characterize the ties between our two nations. We remain committed to further strengthening our bilateral cooperation and expanding our partnership in areas of shared interest for the benefit of our peoples. Please accept, Your Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration. Sincerely, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, PhD. President of the Federal Republic of Somalia
