Rexhep Selimi shows that Serbia's “List” is not the only problem for FAK

So has the member of the Commission for Internal Affairs, Security and KSF Supervisor, at the same time deputy of Movement “Vetevendosje”, Rexhep Selimi.

According to him, if political circumstances continue to be the same, Kosovo will have the army when Belgrade says “Po”.

“For our bad luck, in this infrastructure and political spirit Kosovo will have the army when Serbian List says Belgrade “Po”. Imagine, we are dependent on Belgrade's political will through the Serbian List. ” has said Selimi.

He has added that governments are playing with KSF's fate now four years, while the debate on forming the Kosovo Armed Forces is only a rhetoric for public consumption.

The “in April 2014 proposals for constitutional changes have come in, and from that day to today the KSF has become like the table tennis ball that governments are playing with the fate of KSF month after month and year after year. I'm afraid and I'm worried that even this is a drop in the next ball because it's the same legal and political conditions as if last year like all governments so far for converting KSF into the armed forces. So if they're the same political and legal conditions as in 2014-15-16-17 and in 2018, I'm afraid it's only going to be a rhetoric for public consumption. ” has said Selimi.

According to him, the main argument why the KSF will not be transformed into the army is also the budget shared for it. “We as the parliamentary group have given remarks in the budget the Kosovo government shared for KSF, even the main argument that we have found that these do not want to make the army is the split budget” Selimi has said.

MP from the Vetevendosje Movement ranks has said a 50m-euro budget is not enough even for KSF survival and permission for an army anymore.

And I'm afraid and worried given that this too is a drop in the next ball because it's the same conditions and the judiciary and the political situation as if last year, like all governments so far for converting the KSF into the armed forces. With 50m euros, less and more times the permission to create the new force is not maintained today's KSF. So with that budget today's KSF is guaranteed only a tiring survival and with that budget it does not become Kosovo's next army. ” has finished Selimi.

Otherwise, the budget this year for the Kosovo Security Force totals 53m and 667 thousand euros, where compared to last year it has grown to 2m and 632 thousand euros. /Indesksonline/
