Periskopi(8 years ago)
(8 years ago)On December 22nd, two attempts that the 43 deputies' request for the abolition of the Specialised Chambers Law and the Specialised Prosecutor's Office, known as the Special Court for War Crimes in Kosovo, were sent to the extraordinary session of the Parliament, had failed. Xhavit Haliti, deputy chairman of the Kosovo Assembly from the Democratic Party [...]
Xhavit Haliti, deputy head of the Kosovo Assembly from the Democratic Party of Kosovo, tells Radio Free Europe that there are still disagreements within this party regarding the issue, but that its leader, Veselin, has already published the position for the Special Court.
For me, the statement by the president of the Democratic Party of Kosovo, Veselin, is a responsible statement, a declaration for which, MPs -- whatever -- those of the Democratic Party -- should reflect, for a statement giving an orientation even for MPs, but also for the Democratic Party of Kosovo”, Haliti says.
But, Nat Hasani, Kosovo Parliament deputy from the Democratic Party of Kosovo, which is from the initiators of the application signed by 43 MPs, has said earlier about Radio Free Europe, that their request remains in the Assembly and that it will not back down.
The subx0> MP's request, with 43 signatories, has been, is and will remain as a requirement, directed at the Kosovo Assembly for extraordinary hearings for abolishing the Law for Special Court and Special Prosecutor-Supposed”, Hasani has said.
On the other hand, MP Hasani has said the initiative signed by 43 deputies for abolishing the Special Court is no move to oppose the international community.
We're not against anyone. But since such a court has been created and requested, then we are demanding that it have headquarters in Kosovo. A local court would deal with handling such cases, and we are with international friends to co-operate and create this option”, the deputy Hasani has said.
But, MP Haliti has stressed that the number of 43 Parliament deputies does not mean the entire Assembly, whose two-thirds, in 2015 have voted for the Special Court.
We're not the ones who can act today or tomorrow. I was the one who requested international investigation, that I have sought European solutions to the problem. I insist that this issue, indeed, have a European solution and that it is neither the Balkan solution nor the Kosovo solution, but that it be a European solution”, Haliti stressed.
In favour of the abolition of the Special Court, the Initiative for Kosovo has also been expressed.
