We have for the first time calculated low-energy electronic structure both in paramagnetic and magnetic state as well as zero-temperature properties and thermodynamics. We consistently described magnetic properties of CoO in agreement with its insulating ground state. The orbital moment of 1.42 mu_B gives 35 contribution to the total moment of 4.04 mu_B at T =0 K. We have calculated from this low-energy electronic structure the temperature dependence of the specific heat being in nice agreement with experimental data. In our approach CoO is an insulator independently on distortions and the magnetic order.
