Editorial demarcation ratified. Now what?

After a long effort, parties in the government coalition finally succeeded in ratifying the demarcation agreement with Montenegro. During the day, the Vetevendosje Movement fired tear gas and unable to vote, but in the end it was able to ensure the physical potential for the deal to pass. With the necessary 80 votes, the multiplied deal passed.

So, a three-year-old case was closed. But fear that Kosovo has lost 8,200 hectares is greater than ever, taking into consideration various statements that have given up a portion of MPs that voted the demarcation agreement.

Haradinaj himself was quite uncertain about Montenegro's will to correct the current agreement, but still voted along with his party's deputies.

Whether visas or not will be liberalised remains to be seen. But it is certain that this issue will also be reactualised further, with the issue of correction that can be used in different forms, again and again, by political parties.

If Montenegro, as expected, will not co-operate in corrections according to the findings of Mr. Bulqiqi, then, is expected to have a discurs hardened precisely by the ruling parties leading Haradinaj, who will not admit his mistake but would rush Montenegro.

This issue seriously hurt democracy in our country through a series of things. The first was, of course, the use of undemocratic means in the Assembly, first by all opposition. [ VAN and now alone from the Vetevendosje Movement. That these methods are undemocratic, we don't believe there's anyone who denies it. But Vetevendosje, however, can be called to the protection of territorial integrity, and there may be rights.

Second, but not in importance, is Prime Minister Haradinaj's terrible responsibility. He made himself prime minister by attacking the agreement he passed today in the assembly, but by giving up this agreement. This is the most irresponsible political behavior that has been remembered since declaring independence. And as an extension of this responsibility, it was his attempt to fool public opinion through the presidential agreement, and through the introduction of the Bulliqi Commission's findings.

Another dire consequence [of the territory that may have been lost] is the strain of minds and toughness of language in the public sphere, as well as in parliament. During the sessions held for demarcation, the chairman of the Kadri Veseli Assembly uttered heavily twice. Once Kadri Wessel, next time the entire Vetvendosje parliamentary group. But on the other hand, Vetevendosje has also used a very harsh vocabulary of power, and heavy means to it. The possibility of using ʹpatriotism was reopened.

The eventual loss of 8,200 hectares is not alone. For citizens of Kosovo, very important was this long period of time, which monitored the processes in their country. Kosovars have been treated relatively by the EU, and this has also been enabled by this topic. The only ones without visa liberalisation. The only ones who had to deal with borders in order to travel without visas.

In addition, the ruling PDK parties have continued a terrible practice to secure the votes of [both] MPs. They give different favors, which cost citizens, so that they can get a vote on an important issue. Suddenly, it was learned that LDK deputy businessman Ramiz Kelmendi had a disease and had to be absent from the assembly. Similarly, it was said he had taken a threat, and the cause of that threat would not vote. It is obvious that after all, a businessman's logic may work. Such a practice is even clearly expressed in the Service List, which openly requires favor for itself and for Serbia.

We will now face another very important topic: corruption. Can we get visa liberalisation, since our problem with corruption is much greater, and more visible, than that with borders and demarcation? Hardly said.
