“Family and Hope” requires meeting with Prime Minister Albin Kurti for special court

Serbia's “and Serbian Chairman Aleksandar Vucic, and others like his foreign minister, Ivica Dacic, should be summoned by prosecutor Jack Smith to take a trip to his office in The Hague to testify or interview as suspects of war crimes, because they were ministers and spokespersons of Slobodan Milosevic. For this to become possible, the law for special war crimes tribunal must first be met by the Kosovo Parliament,” writes in a letter to the association's chairman from Kline “The family and Hope, Zana Bytyci-Gecci, to Prime Minister Albin Kurti, with whom she calls for a meeting to advance the association's recognised demand for completing the law in question by the country's new parliament.

Bytyqi-Gec in this letter today has requested a meeting with Prime Minister Albin Kurti, to hand over the request, now even in the quality of the head of our country's executive, to meet the special court law, headquartered in The Hague of the Netherlands, for war crimes in Kosovo during 1998-1999, and to explain to him personally why this must happen.

Bytyqi-Geci writes in the public letter that since Kurti's position has now changed, and even the new coalition government recognizes the reality of the tribunal's existence, which Vetevendosje Movement (LVV) had rejected and not recognised until a few months ago, he could initiate in the country's current coalition, where ruling parties have the majority of votes called for the Association to meet the August 2015 law, so that the court can deal with even , and first, with Serbia's crimes against Albanian civilians and Serbian war criminals committed during the war.

Bytyqi-Gec on paper writes that the association's delegation has a lot of other issues to talk about and ask from Kurti in his new institutional position, and from the party at which he is the one, connecting with Serbia's crimes, but that they will be eye-to-eye at the required meeting.

Following is the Society's letter from Kline émilla and Hope:

Sir Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo Albin Kurti,

I'm Zana Bytyqi-Gecci, head of the association “Family and Hope”, as well as other family members of 86 dead and missing civilians from the municipality of Kline on April 4th 1999 in the Kralan Massacre, with this shipment we are asking for a personal meeting with you in your office.

At this meeting we will personally submit to you all the written requests we've made since 13 November 2016, the entire institutions of the Republic of Kosovo, all political parties and their leaders, all parliamentarians of past municipalities, for fulfilling the evil law for the special selective court for claims against members of the KLA for war crimes, law and court, which have imposed Serbia and its criminals on Kosovo's civilians.

Our demands years ago were made to your party (LVV), as well as to you personally as its chairman and MPs in our country's up-to-date parliaments.

We still have a similar request to you, even when you are in the top position at the executive, and when your party/.your move is now part of the parliamentary majority and the government's leadership.

Your situation and your LVV party have now changed completely, so even in relation to the unjust court now with headquarters at The Hague for Kosovo. You're not in the opposition now, but you're in power.

Members of your party have already responded positively to prosecutor Jack Smith's request for interviews, and LVV's earlier stance on this court is practically not valid.

Going to the LVV members for an interview at The Hague is practical evidence that LVV now accepts this court, even though LVV deputies voted against it in August 2015 and until these visits to Jack Smith's office claimed they and LVV don't recognise this court.

Your Honor, Prime Minister Kurti,

In the position you took a few weeks ago, we didn't hear you initiated an initiative in parliament to remain loyal to your stay until a few months ago that you and LVV don't know the court in question.

We have not seen in your programme through the election campaign, nor in the agreement with your government partner, the LDK, write any lines against this court, or that you do not recognise the court. Your partner then and is now a great supporter of this unjust court in her present form.

Not even in your commentary on the government programme unveiled just before you received the majority (66) votes from parliament for the post you are in today, we have not heard from you, nor has the first word written against this court.

Now, you have to make it clear publicly, and I believe that this explanation of the need for citizens of Kosovo will make us at our first meeting, right there in your office, whether you really are or not against this selective and discriminated court, or whether you accept it as such.

By the time you don't take any initiative in parliament to remain loyal to your 2015 stand on the court, when this strange and selective law was voted, we remain in the hope that you will take time to meet us to hear from us why this law should be PLOWED and not abolished.

As a man of law and order, whom we hope and want to believe that you are just as you have spoken and written since you have started on your long political journey so far, we can't think otherwise unless we can look forward to LVV and exactly your personals, the Prime Minister of Kosovo, you'll be exactly those who will mobilize all your forces, so your government and the ruling parties, to enough voting to meet this evil 2015 law in today's assembly.

Hopefully, you will not refuse our meeting request there in your office in Pristina, or at least leave us without answers, as former Prime Minister Glauk Konjufca, who now became foreign minister of the Republic of Kosovo, left us.

Sir Prime Minister Albin Kurti,

In spite of your up-to-date silence, the LVV and other parties of the West, for the same reason, we will not give up our demand made since November 13th 2016 to meet this law which in its nature is already half and extremely offensive to all of Kosovo and especially about 13,000 Albanian civilian victims of war.

With this law, right there in the assembly of our country, a very shameful, unilateral court was established that never occurred in human history, and it happened exactly with Albanian votes.

Shame on all those in Kosovo and elsewhere in Western countries involved in this court law and at the same time telling us of justice daily to the public, as they did during last month for the massacre in Recak and are silenced by our demand for law enforcement in question, now four years.

This law in its present form is pardoning Serbia and its criminals from crimes against Albanian civilians. The court in question is pardoning Serbia and its criminals from terrible crimes against our most loved ones and all other civilian victims in all of Kosovo, precisely on the grounds of the 2015 deputies and the deputies of the municipalities that followed that failed to meet this law.

Mr. Prime Minister,

We hope that you will be the one who urgently changes his mind and fulfills this law.

There are many cases around the world. See the genocide of the Jewish people, which was assisted by Israeli state institutions, even after 75 years since the end of the war continues to follow Nazi criminals of Hitler's monstrous regime into world courts.

Mr. Kurti, you were in July of 2019 and Tel Aviv and there you are personally convinced of what the insistence on justice is on people after about eight decades. That's how we should be in Albanians, right?

And this example says very simply: Never too late to bring justice to the end.

This example is a wonderful, extraordinary illustration and inspiration for all of us in Kosovo, so for you and all other Kosovo politicians, for foreign diplomats in Pristina, to mobilise with us, for the Association Family and Hope from Cline, and for other associations in Kosovo, to meet this law and respect the word that politicians in Kosovo, and Western officials are telling us daily: “there is no peace without justice” or even “there can be justice.

To date, with this law and this new court in The Hague for Kosovo, this wonderful sentence has been shamed with both legs and polluted with the hands and fingers of all Kosovo politicians, as well as by all diplomats and Western officials and their governments.

The August 2015 error could be improved only by fulfilling the law in question and when Serbian criminals are tried there in The Hague.

Serbia's president Aleksandar Vucci, and others like his foreign minister, Ivica Dacic, should be summoned by prosecutor Jack Smith to take a trip to his office in The Hague to testify or interview as war crimes suspects, because they were ministers and spokespersons of Slobodan Milosevic.

For that to happen, the journey to that point could be launched precisely by you, Mr. Kurti and LDK chairman Isa Mustafa, through the law enforcement.

By August 3, 2015, in Kosovo, the Western world and Kosovo institutions kicked justice without shame, because they polluted the sentence “there is no peace without justice”.

Lord Chief Albin Kurti,

Kosovo Mayor Hashim Thaci, and all the other officials who have met with Vucicin and Dacic under EU-brokered dialogue and assisted by Westerners, have ignored our call against this dialogue without the justice for Albanian victims being concluded, so without the entire participants of Milosevic's criminal enterprise being tried, part of the situation was thus Vucic, Dacic and many others...

Don't make this their mistake, Prime Minister. Do not follow in the footsteps of Hashim Thaci, Isa Mustaf of others who have been sending them all the way since 2011 to Brussels for dialogue such as shamefully kicking justice, and so do our prayers for justice.

We have much more to write and say eye-to-eye, you and all the Kosovo politicians and diplomats and officials of our joint Kosovo allies.

Are you willing to hear us, Mr. Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo?

If so, then set the date and time for the meeting there as soon as possible in your office in Pristina.

We invite you to go out to the press conference immediately after this meeting and show them the media and through them all the citizens of Kosovo what else we talked about, and that we are not listing it.
