E’ the independence of Lombardy-Venetia is possible? AND ( part 1 of 6 )
A user who signed Marco comments on my post on the Lombardo-Veneto saying that "there are no legal paths to achieve independence, unless you are unable to modify the article 5 of the Italian Constitution”. And he adds that there is also the "geopolitical interest in keeping Italy intact on the part of other states, at least to those who have power in the world. Unfortunately”
On the geopolitical interest, exists, but in fact also the opposite interest, because we are going in the direction of disintegrating the nineteenth-century states in favor of large regional governments such as the EU and even more towards a single world government. To this are opposing other factions, the world is no longer mono polar at least since 10 years, are Russia and China also something they decide, or perhaps in fact they command more than is believed, influencing not a little in domestic and international affairs, even if their actual role and weight is publicly denied.
However, it is completely evident, and the fact is, that at present all international law is based on the principle dell’as long as the state is legitimate and does not behave badly with colonized subjects Member, that is, of their indivisibility, even if in some cases the principle of self-determination of peoples has been asserted, but less and less in recent 20 years. Be careful though, the principle applies only to the territory where the states are legitimately present, and where I am respected the human rights.
Marco says that "international treaties have not always proven useful and effective in settling issues, as well as the intervention of the UN through its own resolutions (see the recent case of Kosovo)”, but it seems to me that this issue is resolved by the International Court of Justice: Kosovo, even after the referendum (to another place on the ashes of an ethnic war, religious and) it is legally part of Serbia even if under temporary UN commissioner. This is because the court ruled that a state authority such as the government of a region, HE CAN NOT, for the role it plays, act as an agent of secession, ie must respect its mandate, and this is now a general principle valid for all, as seen in Catalonia, which, however, by no means excludes the action of a self-determined government outside the official regional government. Said in a simple manner, Zaia could not do the secession, a self-determined self-government like the one in 1999 instead yes.
