In a scripture published by American prestige “New The York Times”, Sali Berisha, had insisted that Kosovo have an autonomy within Serbia.
In copyright writing by renowned journalist Seymour Topping and Professor Barnett R. Rubin is talking about the divisions that the political elites at the time had as far as Kosovo's future is concerned.
Kosovo leaders told us they were willing to gradually realise their independence. We also met with Albania's President Sali Berisha, and later he urged Kosovars to consider an autonomy-based solution rather than independence”, it says in the writing of two eminent writers.
The authors even call on the Clinton administration to exploit Berisha's momentum to convince Kosovars to give up Rugova's stubborn call and other leaders for Kosovo independence.
“to feed these constructive ideas, the Clinton Administration must send a special envoy to the southern Balkans to try to start negotiations and warn the international community of any dangers. Let us not wait until atrocities to shake us into action, as in Bosnia”, says their writing published in March 1996.
The last few days have cleared up a debate between former Prime Minister Berisha and Kosovo President Hashim Thaci. Thaci had even accused Berisha of coming out against Kosovo independence, for which he even had a long conflict with former Kosovo President Ibrahim Rugova.
