Lutfi Haziri counters Ramush Haradinaj for Army

Haradinaj said Haziri is insulting the army, while LDK deputy chairman calls the chief executive's reaction inappropriate.

There are different positions of NATO member states about transforming the KSF military into the military.

In addition to their positions, there are politicians in Kosovo who continue to accuse one another about forming the military.

The latest debate is that between Lutfi Haziri and Prime Minister Haradinaj. He said on Friday that the LDK deputy chairman's statement that the Kosovo Army would be less than that is shameful.

Haziri has said on Friday that the prime minister's statement is inappropriate, while showing what it means by the definitions the army will have if it is formed.

The prime minister's “reaction is inappropriate because I just found out that you questioned him. Limited mandates and transformation into the process of 10 years where the Kosovo Army's constitutional mandate” cannot be changed, Haziri's written response reported.

Haradinaj declared Friday morning that it was shameful what Lutfi Haziri had said the night before for the military.

I've heard politicians among them even Lutfi Haziri say this is less than an army is a shame when one of his country offends his army. Kosovo's military has nothing short of any world army in a” mandate, Haradinaj stressed.

And, Haziri in a TV show Thursday said it is inappropriate that Kosovo is not co-ordinated with its allies for army creation.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg presents the position he has been at the meeting, which appears to have been tense. The secretary yesterday has even tried to manage the situation so that Kosovo does not lose. Everything that has been done uncoordinated has failed. There are no surprises with countries like the United States, France, but also NATO because they do not allow surprise”, Haziri has declared for Express.

It's bad news being issued to partners. It is not fair for the country to go out of co-ordination with the international”, the LDK deputy chairman added.

Otherwise, Secretary General NATO, Jens Stoltenberg, has said it opposes transforming KSF into the military without constitutional changes.

Germany wants Kosovo to form an army with constitutional changes and not to rush into its creation, as according to Germans, the Kosovo state has other priorities.

The Kosovo government had initiated the creation of the army with legal changes, following the inability to form it with constitutional changes, due to Serb MPs' barbarous refusal to vote on it.

Prime Minister Haradinaj and Prime Minister Kadri Veselini have declared that the army bill is voted in second reading in the Parliament on 14 December.

Kosovo's assembly has passed three laws on first reading to transform KSF into military
