Sali Berisha explained at the press conference why he did not join the group of opposition MPs who traveled to Pristina this Friday for the joint meeting of the Parliaments of Kosovo and Albania, writes A2 CNN.
"I would not go under any circumstances without voting for the resolution to condemn the Serbian genocide in Kosovo. Without an apology request, the government really represents, but it is the citizens of Kosovo as well, but an apology should be asked to the citizens of Kosovo for the sanctions imposed by Albania. We must apologize to the citizens of Kosovo for coordinating with Vučić so that the north of Kosovo was taken over by NATO. We must apologize to the citizens of Kosovo for the efforts to overthrow their government, up to the banning of the song, the anthem of Adem Jashari, the most symbolic and significant act. I read that song three times, there is no comma to incite hostility, racism, but ama sings to a hero, which the world does not have. There is no other nation where a warrior fights for three days and nights with big and small at home, and does not run away, while I had all the opportunities to retreat", said Berisha.
The DP chairman added that any interference by Albania in the Prishtina-Belgrade dialogue problem is anti-national. "I consider it absolutely blocking and not stimulating for solutions. All the proposals of Edi Rama, the coordinated positions with Aleksandar Vučić as his argat, have brought a number of places in the negotiation process, even serious irritations between these two countries. Albania can neither be a mediator nor a participant. Albania is on the side of Kosovo", said Berisha.
"It is said about the dialogue, but every other step of Albania damages the dialogue. The government of Tirana has no business giving formulas or schemes, even more so a government that declared the Dnieper the north of Kosovo. Even more so a government that told Kosovo to submit or you will go to the bronze age. Even more so, a man who was the first in Europe to impose sanctions on Kosovo. Even more so, a man who got involved in the plans for the division, the dismemberment of Kosovo with Belgrade. A man who supported the Open Balkans, a clearly Russian-Serbian project. But there is a positive development here. The current government of Kosovo has proved the merit of multiplying them by zero, to return the rest to Pashić of Tirana, just like Pashić of Belgrade".
