I went door to door, office to office, with only one goal to make known the voice and right of the people of Kosovo for freedom, independence and sovereignty”.

Pacolli in this post expressed thanks to President Rutte for keeping his word.

President William Ruto, stood by the word given in 2016. He visited Kosovo in 2019 and felt the power and determination of our people.
