Until the country's leaders, Hashim Thaci, Ramush Haradinaj and Kadri Veselini, along with the 43 deputies of the Kosovo Assembly, tried to abolish the law for the Special Court, the state of Switzerland, in January of this year has provided funds for the 200 thousand francs.
In an authorial writing by Pierre Hazan, it has become known that the Swiss state has handed over the Special Court donations of 200,000 francs as financial support.
“In January 2018, Switzerland provided funds of 200 thousand francs (214,750 dollars) for the special Foreign Court, which is expected to shed light on the crimes committed in Kosovo between 1998 and 2000, especially on the disappearance of 500 mainly Serb civilians during the conflict between separatists and Serbian forces and NATO abiding”, writes in the The article.
The author writes that numerous MPs from the ruling party in Pristina remained determined to end this tribunal of theirs, which could threaten the top people in power who were commanders of, as the author writes, the former rebel KLA.
So Switzerland's support is more important and gives a message to politicians than sending a lot of funding. Ekaterina Trendafilova, chairman of the court, realized this when money was sent to help distribute knowledge and information to the general public about the mandate and work of Specialised Chambers”, writes the Swiss newspaper Swiss Swissinfo.
