KMLDJ reacts to the EU: Applying Double Standards

The Council for Protection of Human Rights and Freedoms has said the European Union is implementing double standards on the issue of war crimes and the pardon Kosovo President Hashim Thaci has made to war crimes convicts. According to KMDLNj, this fact is disturbing because it implies flagrant intervention [...]
According to KMDLNj, this fact is disturbing, since it implies flagrant intervention in the independence of the maintenance institutions and responsible for early release of convicted persons, even in constitutional law and which is undeniable of the president's pardoning convicts seeking forgiveness, as their right.
This reaction of this council comes only a day after the European Union brought the annual progress report for the countries of the Western Balkans, where some minor advances have been identified and very important to them for the journey of Kosovo to be part of the European family.
KMDLNj says that in Kosovo the way and conditions of how convicts can seek and benefit from the president of Kosovo, and forgiveness from the president is the will and decision, as well as the president's exclusive right.
With legislation in effect in Kosovo, every convict, no matter how condemned and for what work he has been condemned, if he accepts it and successfully passes the re-socialisation programme, he is right, after a time serving the sentence to seek privacy.
Furthermore, according to KMDLNj, the issue of war crimes is a sensitive issue and, under its circumstances, it is more political than the issue of justice.
In particular, the issue of forgiveness or early release of war crimes convicts in Kosovo is subject to extreme politicisation.
