Thaci: I am very good at leading the KLA

Kosovo President Hashim Thaci has said he feels very proud to have led the Kosovo Liberation Army when asked whether he is afraid of the Special Court.

I now face Serbia for three decades. I am very proud (I am) to have led the KLA”, he said at a news conference.

“Politics must do its job and do not engage in justice KLA values on the other side cannot harm anyone”.

Thaci has said that if the Kosovo political class is not unique in terms of visa liberalisation, then this liberalisation could be postponed by 2020.

He issued this statement at a media conference after his return from New York, where he was located under the UN General Assembly works, where he had met with top US, European and UN officials.

“Call on all politicians and political parties instead of having a contribution and attitude that responsible and disciplined in a voice about the necessity of visa liberalisation in a short term of several months”, he has said.

If the opposite occurs, we risk that the whole process will be postponed by 2020<18x1>.
If we are unique, this achieved result will be closed in the coming months”.
Thaci reiterated that different opinions concerning the country's progress are at risk of postponing visa liberalisation by 2020, and that this is in the hands of Kosovars themselves.

If we have different opinions and voices and differences in progress, for day public interests then liberalisation is jeopardised by 2020”.

The decision for visa liberalisation is in our hands”

None of us have the right to risk visa liberalisation for Kosovo citizens”.

He has also talked about Kosovo's membership in Interpol.

Thaci has said that at the Interpol General Assembly, which will be held in Dubai, it has great importance for Kosovo.

Kosovo's “Membership in Interpol will increase our country's even more responsibility in fighting terrorism, illegal migration and all other negative things. So I invite all representatives of states to support Kosovo for membership at Interpol” again, said President Thaci.

Kosovo's membership in Interpol, according to him, will be in the interest of all Interpol member states.

He said that during his stay in New York, he has held many meetings with foreign diplomats and that he has talked about Kosovo's membership in Interpol.

The “is a goal that should unite us all, is Kosovo's state interest, is the strategic interest of our state”, he said.
