Periskopi(5 years ago)
(5 years ago)The rapporteur for Kosovo in the European Parliament, Violet von Crammon, has commented on the statements of former EULEX Judges Assembly Chairman Malcolm Simmons, who is continuing the claims that this mission was corrupt and political. In an interview for Klan Kosovo, the charges such as Simmons call them strange, and says they need to be learned [...]
In an interview for Klan Kosovo, the charges such as Simmons call them strange, and says it should be learned in detail what is already his motive behind these statements.
It's interesting that someone who worked in this institution and then left it four years ago on these charges four years later. So, regarding his statement, there are a number of questions that can be posed”.
What's his motive now? Does it have anything to do with investigations against him from his mission? EULEX? And why he went to the Kosovo Assembly deputies, maybe that's why I would say the cause of his immunity and I find it a little suspicious and, above all, a major attack on EU institutions”.
Meanwhile, if Simmons's statement may be linked to judicial processes against former KLA leaders in the Special Court, it says that” so far from what we have seen from his statements, his accusations were made for public consumption”.
“None of them can be confirmed by EULEX's mission, and I think it is unacceptable that such a person has a political agenda to accuse EULEX's mission, in this way delegated and sensitive way at this time when there are developments in Kosovo's Specialised Chambers to underestimate this process there, but also for the EU institution<1> itself.
My “Porossia for Kosovo deputies would be to think twice and set up a meeting if there is a need, to find ways to choose this, not to use this for political purposes and to dismiss all independent investigations into justice institutions”.
The time will at least give more opportunities to declare in connection with these, which immediately after Mr Thaci's arrest, Veselin and Selimi from the Specialised Chambers issued Simmons' request to report to the Kosovo Assembly, so this leaves room for many speculations”.
Did the deputies of the Kosovo Assembly who approved Simons's request wrong to report to parliament?
I'd say it's “
It's a pity there was a public hearing. The right would be to have a secret report that the Speaker of the Parliament [Glauk Konjufca] with the majority in parliament, to fix this and not the way it happened, because I'm saying it again will be used by people who have an interest in pushing judicial processes or even damaging EU institutions”.
