“Blood mixed with Serbs”, Sami Lushtaku harsh toward Kurti

The mayor of Skenderaj, Sami Lushtaku, spoke harshly against Prime Minister Albin Kurti after joining the protesters who are demanding the approval of the draft law amending the Law on the Specialist Chambers.

Lushtaku said that the failure to approve this draft law is, in his view, linked to the political interests of those in power, while stressing that the issue does not concern only the former KLA leaders, Hashim Thaçi and Kadri Veseli, but the state of Kosovo.

He added that the KLA was not the property of individuals, but of the Albanian people.

“This is the true face of Albin Kurti, who came to power with deceit and lies and continues in the same way. For the sake of his own chair, he does not approve a law that is not for Hashim Thaçi and Kadri Veseli, but for the state of Kosovo, for the blood and the sacrifice not only of KLA soldiers, but of the people. The KLA did not belong to Hashim Thaçi or to any individual, but to the Albanian people. I am speaking about Albanians, not about those who have their blood mixed with the blood of Serbs. There is police here that was also led last night, when that happened here. People whose fathers are in Serbia, there, with names and surnames,” he said, as KosovaPress reports.

Lushtaku also spoke about the presence of the Kosovo Police during the protest, accusing those in power of manipulating the police and using force against the protesters.

“Those in power have manipulated the Kosovo Police. The actions were unnecessary, as the protesters were calm. The protesters have been here for 18 days and have not carried out a single negative action. We do not see the police as enemies, nor political entities, but as political opponents, yes,” Lushtaku stressed.

Finally, asked about the election of the country’s president, Lushtaku said that for him the most important thing is the issue of approving the law.

“I don’t know. We have a party chairman who can answer you. For me, what matters is the law, and it does not matter whether the president is elected or not. Not that I don’t want it, because the country is without institutions,” Lushtaku said. /kp/
