Cakaj commemorates Demach: Memorable of What Cannot Be Compared to No One

Cakaj through a long post on the social Facebook network has highly appreciated Demach's work, Kosovo's Klan reports

When others may have waited on him in his old age and buried by life more than at large, Demach again continued his journey with the same unmatched courage and unmatched will. In his address on the occasion of receiving the ʹSaharov) prize in December 1991, he said there are no prison releases in Kosovo because Kosovo itself has become a major prison. After talks with the highest diplomatic levels in Europe in the early 1990s, he returned as a mere, devoted worker to the Human Rights Protection Council. He was silent and never stopped: he continued at the top of protests and hunger strikes throughout the first part of the 1990s, became a vocal part of Kosovo's political life even within the parallel system with the Parliamentary Party, and served as political representative of the Kosovo Liberation Army until March 1999. Amid NATO bombings and despite the mass killings and violations of the Milosevic regime in Kosovo, he walked alone, as a free spirit of his own opinion, between the streets of Pristina, contempting any warning of possible liquidation”.

Cackaj, among other things, says Adem Demach is not Nelson Mandela, neither of Kosovo, nor of the Balkans, nor of Europe.

It is simply Adam Demach of all: unique and unique in itself, the authentic product of the society of the nation to which it met, the great example of the sacrifice - filled effort for human freedom”

A favor to Adam Demach, without whom today has been two years...

As a young student in Belgrade, in the mid - '50s, he stood up against Dobrica Qosikiqi to protect national literature and the work of the reborns in Yugoslavia. As a young writer, among the dark years of Rankovic's time, he published the work Blood Snakes in the New Life magazine, criticising the phenomenon of revenge sought by the internal union against invaders. For this work, he suffered his first sentence at the Vojvodina Mitrovica Stream prison from 1958 to 1961. As a national activist, in 1963 he became an initiator of the first well-organised effort in Yugoslavia for national unity by establishing the Revolutionary Movement for the Union of Albanians. At that stance, he ran into not only the regime of Rankovic but also the elite of Albanian communists in Yugoslavia. As a man, he never scares you, alone and often against everyone, always serving righteousness and truth.

On April 13th 1964, he and his friends placed 99 national flags side and corner of Kosovo's top centres to clearly express national identity and in the service of the national right to self-rule. For the action, he was immediately imprisoned with swift trial in the notorious Nis and Pozharec prisons from 1964 to 1974.

However, Demach was not only beyond Yugoslav prisons, but he had exceeded himself - he belonged to an entire people. His ideas could not be shut down in prison bars or restricted by violent police measures. Inspired by his work, on November 27th, November 28, 1966, all of Kosovo stood up to seek national self-rule and its immediate release. His political spirit became an additional force to counter Albania's November 28th Independence on November 29th as Yugoslavia's official day. That spirit encouraged not only Albanians in the wave of uprisings of the 1980s but also the spirit of the entire Kosovo liberation war.

For 10 years in prison, he didn't break or change. He judged Yugoslavia's judges on the Kosovo issue rather than Yugoslavia's judges one person. He was released from prison in 1974, precisely at the time when Albanians were enjoying the highest quality political life since after World War II in Yugoslavia. A day after his release, he began working for the nation where he left the day of his arrest, unsurpassed by superficial improvements and unconventional to collective illusions. He fell into prison again, for the third time, because of his homeland, in October 1975. He remained arrogant in Croatia's Old Gradysca Prison for another 15 years until 1990.

When others may have received him in years of old and more overwhelmed by life in prison than at large, Demach continued his course again with unmatched courage and will. In his address on the occasion of receiving the ʹSaharov) prize in December 1991, he said there are no prison releases in Kosovo because Kosovo itself has become a major prison. After talks with the highest diplomatic levels in Europe in the early 1990s, he returned as a mere, devoted worker to the Human Rights Protection Council. He was silent and never stopped: he continued at the top of protests and hunger strikes throughout the first part of the 1990s, became a vocal part of Kosovo's political life even within the parallel system with the Parliamentary Party, and served as political representative of the Kosovo Liberation Army until March 1999. Amid NATO bombings and despite the mass killings and violations of the Milosevic regime in Kosovo, he walked alone, as a free spirit with his own thoughts, among the streets of Pristina, contempting any warning of possible liquidation.

After the war in Kosovo, Demac continued to remain the same, non-improved idealist in the service of Kosovo's glorification and its precious political voice. Almost like Father Gjergj Fish in his day, he often spoke carelessly and carelessly against all those who thought Kosovo misused freedom and ruined development opportunities. He and even an example of how he lives with dignity and his head up and before the low attacks of wicked mouths, simply being told the truth and being on the right side of his life.

Adem Demach is not Nelson Mandela, neither of Kosovo, nor of the Balkans, nor of Europe. It is simply Adam Demach of all: unique and unique in itself, the authentic product of the society of the nation to which it met, a great example of the sacrifice - filled effort for human freedom.

No word for Adam Demach can end with a quiet resort: no one can imagine Adam Demach, either resting or being quiet. He has left behind man's most inspiring legacy of putting his beliefs ahead of his life and his entire life in the ministry of the country. So his memory is at the same time the obligation to walk the same path, no matter what.
