Rubin: Thaci was considered a leader, Albanians had appointed him

According to Rubin, Thaci was the key person he had to work with, so the agreement could be accepted by the KLA.

“We thought that LDK, Veton Surroi, agreed on this, and that [state secretary, Madeleine Albright] told me that I should work with [Thaci], because it was the important person, was the main person appointed by Kosovo Albanians”, said Rubin.

If you want to call it a leader, if you want a contact person”, he says.

He described Thaci's role at the time as of a Kosovo top diplomat.

So I saw him as foreign minister, reflecting his army's views, his government's views, which he signed, so like a foreign affairs minister”, Ruby added. /Periscopi/

Rubin says in front of The Hague Attorney: This is not justice, you're making political guilt for Thaci and others
