29 years from Kosovo's autonomy assessment

Today on March 23rd, 29 years take place since the violent vote in the then Kosovo Parliament on the removal of Kosovo's autonomy.

This act precedes several popular protests and strikes by Albanians.

At the end of 1988, and early in 1989, the strike of Albanian miners and students from February 19th to February 29, 1989, marked the peak of a powerful resistance against Milosevic's shovinist campaign for the collapse of Kosovo autonomy.

However, the Serbian government ignored the will of Albanians, and instead once again it decided on the state of emergency, which resembled military curfew.

While, on 23rd of 1989, the vote was imposed under the Kosovo Parliament's police and military siege, and the counting of votes became incorrectly and transparently, where Kosovo lost its autonomy.

On March 28th 1989, the abolition of Kosovo's autonomy was pompously celebrated in Belgrade, and Serbia's <x0-unification” was declared, as far as torture, imprisonment and murder of Albanians continued in Kosovo, who the world peacefully manifested against abolishing their rights from Milosevic's Neofashevicnist regime.

According to the earlier scenario prepared in Belgrade, at the top of the pyramid for detention were Azem Vlasi and the leaders of “Treps” and several miners (Aziz Abrashi, Burhan Kavaja, Avdi Uka, Veli Osmani). Then Lazer Krasniqi, director of KEK, etc. They were accused of criminal acts, punishable under criminal law even by death.
