Cufaj also writes about the relations Kosovo had with America, citing Ibrahim Rugova, Hashim Thaci and Ramush Haradinaj.
But here he gave a positive assessment of all these reports, citing the incumbent Prime Minister, Albin Kurti, citing that he only supported the Democrats and rejected the Republicans.
Full Potion of Cufaj:
James Rubin's testimony at The Hague is historical. Not only because Thaci said he had no command role but also because he was allowed to testify. Rubin is a democrat, and to get permission from the State Department (now under republican leadership) is not easy.
But Kosovo has always known to work with both sides in America:
Ibrahim Rugova, Hashim Thaci, Ramush Haradinaj built bridges with Democrats and Republicans.
Bill Clinton brought relief.
George E. Bush blessed independence in 2008.
Donald Trump reached the Washington Agreement in 2020, where Kosovo was also recognised by Israel.
This was our strength: America's bipartisan support.
The only exception? Albin Kurti. He supported only the Democrats, refused the Republicans, and finally lied to the Democrats themselves.
This is not a vision. That's populism.
