In March 2008, the Guatemalan Foreign Minister, Haroldo Rodas, said that he had objected to the recognition of Kosovo in deference to Russian concerns. However, the government was still considering recognising Kosovo.[ citation needed ]
At a meeting on 26 March 2009 with Kosovo's Foreign Minister, Skënder Hyseni, the Ambassador of Guatemala to the United Nations, Gert Rosenthal, said that his country's government was carefully studying the developments in Kosovo, and the preparations to present a case to the International Court of Justice. He also said that Guatemala was working with others in Latin America to reach a decision. [1]
In April 2014, Guatemalan President Otto Pérez Molina said that his country would consider recognising Kosovo. [2]
International governments are divided on the issue of recognition of the independence of Kosovo from Serbia, which was declared in 2008.

The relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republic of Kosovo are unofficial because the former's central government has not recognized Kosovo as a sovereign state, essentially through the veto of the Bosnian Serb-dominated Republika Srpska. Bosniak and Croat members of the Presidency support the recognition of Kosovo as a sovereign state, and Serb members do not; Bosnia and Herzegovina's constitution requires consensus among all three members in order to perform such an action. Bosnia and Herzegovina remains the only country of the former Yugoslavia – alongside Serbia – that does not recognize Kosovo's independence.

Israel and Kosovo agreed on 4 September 2020, as part of negotiations for the Kosovo and Serbia Economic Normalization agreements, to mutually recognize each other. It was initially reported that the mutual recognition had not yet gone into effect at that point, and Israel's recognition of Kosovo was expected to be formally declared "in the coming weeks". However, on 21 September the ambassador of Israel to Serbia, Yahel Vilan, confirmed that Israel had indeed recognized Kosovo on 4 September 2020. The two countries established diplomatic relations on 1 February 2021. On 14 March 2021 Kosovo officially opened its embassy in Jerusalem.
