Wessel: Justice Could Be Delayed but Not Denial

During his speech to Kosovo's Specialised Chambers in The Hague, Wessel has declared that his actions have been legal and that there is no evidence he has committed war crimes.

I know who I am, what I did and what I didn't do... My actions were legal. The court must at all costs defend truth, justice, and impartiality. Even in the darkest moments, I did not lose confidence that the truth will prevail. Freedom cannot be achieved by injustice. My family and I have lived in constant persecution. I know what it means to live in constant threats, it's an experience I'd never wish for anyone. After decades of investigation and documents, there is no evidence that I committed crimes”, Wessel added.

He said he returned to Kosovo, since he has not been able to remain indifferent to the suffering his people were experiencing.
