Haradinaj-Syleman Selimi: Have you ever been to the Dukagjin war?

That question, Haradinaj asked in the interactive KTV, as the numbers he and Selim offered to KLA fighters were far apart.

As Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj, brother of MP Daut Haradinaj, declared that there were over 50,000 fighters in the Dukagjini region alone, former commander Selimi has declared there were no more than 13 thousand in all of Kosovo.

That statement, Daut Haradinaj, has answered with questions, saying Selimi has never been to Dukagjin and has no way of knowing the number of fighters.

I'm glad these give themselves the right to speak. The wand is not behind them. I don't speak of the eye because of its position. My question about him is when you were in Dukagjin during the war, in what case? Sylejman Selimi and I met twice in Licoc and Achareva in his village. It wasn't me. He talks to the IOM list. None of my village, anyone better than the others, none of these men published on IOM. This was an organisation that offered financial sums to people who were being demobilised by uniforms and created a solidification fund for the integration of former UCK members. They got three thousand dollars in three signatures. These lists do not estimate war”, Haradinaj said in KTV's interactive.

“No one came out to say, from those who are opposing, at the time when Ramush was in The Hague that Carla Del Ponte is lying. No one could say that Ramush had only 50 soldiers. Let them deny my lists, I'll take them. Thaci was in Dukagjin, but not Syla. I don't think there's a better man in Drenica for what he's gonna give him the evidence. In that way, he took his hood off, but physically he wasn't with me. It was Rexhep Selimi, but not Sylejman Selimi”, Haradinaj added.

According to Haradinaj, in Dukagjin there are huge mobilizations for reasons of proximity to Albania. He has said hundreds of fighters were killed only during the weapons supply. He said that seeing the permanent figures on these lists of fake veterans suspects had to have reaction from those at war. According to him, population terrorism has been made. Announcing dozens of photographs of fellow fighters, Haradinaj has said he is guilty of all these problems. According to him, there had to be no law for those who were at the end of the war, but there had to be divisions based on how many warriors were at war.

When the war started, we were small enough to mobilise in Dukagjin. We were all at war with what we could. The law is bad. It has to be changed. Veterans is the first one to have started, not the last one. In Kosovo, they have made the law to be veteran the one who has entered the last”, he has said, adding that the prosecution should provide answers to the lists.

He said he's sorry that a lot of people who are talking right now, they've been looking at a two-way fight behind”, but he hasn't mentioned names.
