(9 months ago)Former American diplomat James Rubin, who testified to former President Hashim Thaci in The Hague in an exclusive interview in “political Yehoma” in Kosovo has spoken about his testimony and whether he met with it or not. Rubin said he hasn't seen Thaci for 5 years and that at the courtroom they haven't exchanged [...]
Rubin said he hasn't seen Thaci for five years and that they haven't even looked at each other in the courtroom.
I haven't had former President Thaci in five years. I saw him at the courtroom and he was filled with dignity, and we didn't even look at each other, but I had him in mind all the time of my testimony”.
His attorneys made it very clear that they didn't want me to talk to anyone about the testimony while I was there. This is the usual” thing, Rubin said in Klan Kosova.
On the other hand, Rubin said he hoped to see Thaci soon in freedom and to shake hands with each other as the Special Court's process and charges against Thaci called them terrible and treacherous,
I really hope to see him soon after he's released from prison, I hope we'll be able to tighten each other and be very pleased that I've been given the opportunity to help this horrible chapter in Kosovo's political history”.
“Absolutely. The charges against him are false for two main reasons. The first was no vertical chain of command within the KLA that would enable him to give orders or make decisions. Even to the extent that there was a vertical chain of command was led by a man named General Ceku”.
I don't think the idea that there were orders from the top for anything is real. If you believe in this, it's wrong. It wasn't Thaci, but it was General Ceck or other commanders”.
