The debate for Kosovo’s border exchange with Serbia has caused a debate between Albania’s former Prime Minister, Sali Berisha, and Kosovo’s President, Hashim Thaci.
Berisha met with representatives of local institutions in Presheva. After this meeting, he asked the Presheva Albanians to not become part of Thaci’s affair.
He writes that Kosovo owes nothing to Serbia: “By accepting to divide Kosovo, you support Belgrade’s idea for a Greater Serbia”, the former Prime Minister wrote, adding that minority communes such as Mitrovica would create a precedent that would undermine peace and stability throughout the region.
But the President of Kosovo, Hashim Thaci, didn’t react well to Berisha’s intervention. Thaci said that the institutions of Kosovo should not accept advices from those who sold diesel to Serbian tanks during 1992-1997, when the entire world had sanctions against them.
“Just to fill their own pockets, they fueled Milosevic’s tanks, although the international community had put sanctions to Serbia”, Thaci said.
“We don’t need the advices of those who imprisoned Adem Jashari, Fehmi Lladrovci, Xheve Lladrovci, Zahir Pajaziti and who called the KLA a terrorist group. They are going against the will of the Albanians of Presheva, Bujanoc and and Medvegja to join Kosovo. They are the people who Rugova didn’t allow to enter Kosovo. Their advices belong to a time of shame”, the Kosovo President said.
