The thing that concerns countries like Russia and Spain is whether self-determination can override sovereignity - if said sovereignity does not exist (as is the case with Israel/Palestine) then it does not cause concern for those countries. |
Again International soverinty is irrelvent, considering the majority of these cases happened before such a term existed.
Look up the Nagorno-Karabakh situation for basically the exact same thing but without all the high profile involvement.
