In 1998, President Rugova, as the winner of the Sakharov Prize, addressed the same institution to seek the support of European peoples for Kosovo freedom. 25 years after, before the same institution, I will convey the gratitude of the people of Kosovo for the European Parliament's contribution to our freedom, democracy and independence, as well as to our European path”, she wrote.
