As you say, however, this may be a temporary situation.

I agree it should not yet be listed as a separate country at this point.

Of course that would change if they started changing their own time zones!


Not necessarily. Even though Kosovo is recognized as a separate country by most western countries, the vast majority of countries (75% ?) still see it as part of Serbia pending a decision by the UN.

This could all change very soon though.
