Haradinaj optimistic that visas take place in June: There are good developments

He made these comments after the memorial academy honouring the Lybeniki massacre, asked by the media when visa liberalisation for Kosovo citizens will occur, as recently The EP has voted again for their removal.

The executive leader said the second vote that took place in the European Parliament for Visas could speed up making the decision for June, but cannot guarantee that this could happen with certainty.

We're working that we can also guarantee that we're being criticized, even further away, we're working on it, it's fair to happen. I believe some signals you're investigating, some better developments, but it's not a work deal. It must be carefully worked. Many have been well-pleased that it was voted in the EU's again parliament, that had it not been voted out, the new Parliament's constitutionalisation had to be expected. It means we don't waste time. The second vote that took place in Parliament of the EU is just not to waste time. With the second vote, it has been enabled to make the” decision even in June, Haradinaj said.

He has made it known that even at the meeting he has had with German officials today, he has asked Berlin to take over to explain to other European countries the importance of lifting visas for Kosovo citizens, so that finally to end the isolation of freedom of movement.

Igor's got it right, and I thank Tanya and everyone who's done an extraordinary job. Today we had important visitors from Berlin, I think we're not in the wrong direction, but it's been too long and we deserve to move freely. I've assured them every time that they don't even go to refugee people, they don't even go crime there, they're just the possibility of free movement. We need a sponsor country to do this to do Berlin to explain to other governments that the time has come”, Haradinaj said.

Speaking about the questions of the found, Haradinaj said there would be a legal improvement of the status of the missing categories and martyrs.

It's a scheme that I treat as a category by law, but it's a very flawed law, since it's not done properly at the time. We've solved in the best way the victims of sexual violence, the categories of freedom, the families of martyrs, the warriors, the disabled, and those are the most advanced laws. The only category left is the found - but also the martyrs, since even when found dead, then the family goes into a martyr category. We are preparing the law and I believe that for two or three weeks we will have it in the government, but I am not going to dare to give the details now that they are in discussion, but there will be a legal improvement in the status of the undiscovered and martyrs”, Haradinaj said.
