While the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, was in Tirana, the Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama called on citizens "from Albania to Kosovo, North Macedonia and everywhere in the diaspora" to join the protest in support of the former leaders Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), which will be held in Tirana on Friday at 17 p.m., reports KoSSev.
"It is with pleasure and honor that I announce this call. Freedom has a name. From Kosovo, from North Macedonia, Albania, the diaspora and every corner of the Albanian land - thousands of hearts will unite this Friday, October 17, at 5:00 p.m., to unanimously demand Justice for the liberators," Rama said on Facebook.
The protest is organized by the leaders of the Kosovo Association of Former Members of the KLA, who chose Tirana as the next location for the mass protest. They previously held a rally in support of the accused members of the KLA not far from the seat of the Special Court in The Hague.
They demand the release and "fair" trial of former KLA leaders Hashim Thaci, Kadri Veselj, Jakup Krasniฤi and Redลพep Selimi, who are facing charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity before the Specialized Chambers.
