| Rama speaking at the UN Assembly |
Prime Minister Edi Rama also spoke about Dick Martyn's report to the United Nations General Assembly. Rama today asked this organization to accept Albania's request to submit a new report, which contradicts with evidence and facts Dick Marty's report, which according to him has deliberately blackened the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), but also the history of Kosovo itself.
Rama said that this report is fiction and fantasy, but described as even more serious the fact that, based on what the Swiss politician wrote in 2011, today the leaders of the KLA are unjustly imprisoned.
"As soon as the word Balkans is mentioned, the tainted images of human crimes, genocide in Srebrenica, and human cleansing in Kosovo come to mind, Accountability must continue, but this requires commitment and determination to the ideals of justice and cooperation between the parties, justice is served with facts, evidence and given the data, I cannot help but share a terrible example that should be a lesson to the world. In 2011, Dick Marty's report was brought where the Kosovo army was accused of organ trafficking, he should have been paid as a narrator, but not as a reporter for the Council of Europe. Not only did many believe them, but they also became key factors for the establishment of specialized chambers and it became one of the most serious cases of the manifesto against the independence of Kosovo. Not a single bit of evidence or indication was found anywhere in Kosovo or anywhere else, and yet, the specialized chambers have arrested Hashim Thaci without charge, he waited a year in prison until he was officially accused, imagine for once, your president, who is taken by the office is taken to a third country where he is detained for a whole year without any official charges, not a single word of the indictment has anything to do with the Council of Europe report on the alleged crime of trafficking, a fantasy of whole, monumental failure at the international level, tarnishing a country. We think that the Assembly will need the truth and accept Albania's request to have a follow-up report, while the damage has been done and help restore the credibility of such an important organization," Rama said among other things.
