Murati: The Constitution is a sacred book, to function the state, we must change it

Murati, says the Constitution must be changed because it is not a sacred book, while it also gives ideas about which areas should be affected by these changes.

Initially, Murati says the Constitution in its present form is like the derivatives of the Kosovo Albanians' compromise in exchange for independence, until it adds that it has not been prepared by the will of the people.

This is his complete writing:

Kosovo's constitution is not a sacred book! To function the state of Kosovo, it must change!

Kosovo's constitution is responsible for the Ahtisaari Pack, hence a major compromise of Kosovo Albanians in exchange for the country's independence. This constitution does not originate with popular will, nor has it been drafted by our legal and constitutional experts. It is simply the product of international pressure that through accepting the principles of the Ahtisaari Pack we will be accepted by Serbia. When you hear on this day talk about some kind of holiness for the constitution, no one knows whether this is happening because of collective political amnesia, or under the influence of the fact that we are also among the two religious holidays. Of course, since the Constitution is in force, it must be respected because this is how the principle of rule of law and democratic order requires it. But truth must also be told and discussed extensively. Kosovo lacks functionality because of constitutional arrangements. The civic and multiethnic constitution is discussed here, while all the solutions it has made especially for the Serb minority are ethnic. Privileges which have been given to the Serb minority have consistently caused even under the influence of official Belgrade to be used to defunct the state of Kosovo. Furthermore, instead of using talks with Serbia to create circumstances for constitutional changes, through which the blocking privileges of Serb minority political representatives would be removed, we are witnessing an agreement with Serbia that would burden the functionality of the state of Kosovo by adding weight to these constitutional block privileges through the establishment of association of Serb majority municipalities, as well as a privileged judicial position for the Serbian Orthodox Church. So now we will face a trinomic of our internal mechanisms through which Serbia will fight the functionality of our republic.

So the primary task of our policy would be to find the way to change this constitution, not to cement it. Instead, our policy, and in concrete cases, the government led by Albin Kurti, without exempting the damage done by even the preliminary governments, has further complicated the functioning of the state of Kosovo. Talks with Serbia have been opportunities to pave the way for Kosovo to decide for itself what conditions it will have without current restrictions, but at the moment this case was issued. Instead of insisting on reciprocity with Eastern Kosovo, it was insisted that recognition be at the centre of the talks. Instead of insisting on the idea of redefining the borders, he insisted on territorial integrity. Instead of insisting on solutions that pave the way for constitutional changes and functionality of the state of Kosovo was insisted on its change. So all over the population institutions against functional solutions. And finally, not even knowledge came and solutions that are coming and complicates the functionality of our country further. However, the truth should be said: The constitutions are not sacred! To function the state of Kosovo, this constitution must be changed! The only road is to return to the table of single-right project talks and solve the Albanian-Serbian problem in the Balkans to redefine borders.
