Homage for the Jashari family

After the war, millions of people have visited this place for honoring the sacrifice of the Jashari family. The former Administrator of Kosovo, Bernard Kouchner, who later became a Minister in France, had declared that if there would be a Nobel Prize for freedom, it would go to Adem Jashari.

The Head of the Kosovo government, Hashim Thaci, paid homage together with his cabinet at the Prekaz cemetery and declared:

“Each time that we honor the past, the war of the Kosovo Liberation Army, the resistance of all Kosovo citizens, we honor the present, and we receive energy for the future, for consolidating our state, for being integrated in NATO and EU.”

After the homage, the Kosovo Prime Minister visited Klina, where he honored the martyrs Muje Krasniqi, and then he went to Gllogjan Martyrs’ Cemetery. During the day, wreaths were placed at martyr Zahir Pajaziti statue.

The Jashari family representative, Murat Jashari, wished the Albanian people to make good use of the state-creating freedom.

“All those men and women gave their life during the centuries for reaching the freedom that we have today, a freedom for building our family and economy”, declared Murat Jashari, nephew of Adem Jashari.

A delegation from the Self-Determination Movement stayed in Prekaz this Tuesday, while after the homage and the visit at the Jashari Family, their leader, Albin Kurti, declared:

“58 people did not give their life only for freedom, but also for the liberating war, because in this place, 14 years ago, the KLA started to grow”.

The three-day manifestation will close this Wednesday evening with the night of fires, with the “Torches of Freedom” that will be lit not only in Prekaz, but throughout Kosovo.
