In a Facebook post, Tahiri said that the KLA fought not only for independence and freedom, but also to protect the Albanian people from violence, expulsion and attempts to eradicate them from Kosovo.
He recalled that the KLA’s fight against genocide took place at a time when the tragedy in Bosnia was still fresh. According to Tahiri, the disregard for this reality shows that the Specialist Chambers’ decision is political and unjust, rather than an act of justice.
Tahiri emphasized that the Kosovo Liberation Army’s war remains a glorious part of the country’s history and represents a just struggle to defend the people, their dignity and freedom.
According to him, no judgment can undo this historical truth or the sacrifice of thousands of people.
The Alliance’s deputy leader said he would always support any initiative aimed at securing the release of the KLA leaders, preserving the values of the liberation war and ensuring full justice.
Concluding his response, Tahiri called for this injustice to be corrected and ended his message with the words: “Not in my name!”
