In his response, Sali stressed that the freedom of a people cannot be the object of any trial and described the KLA as one of the symbols of Kosovo’s resistance and liberation.
Recalling the crimes committed during the war in Kosovo and the civilian victims of the ethnic cleansing campaign by the Milošević regime, Sali wrote: “The Kosovo Liberation Army will forever remain the pride of the Albanian nation.”
He expressed the expectation that justice in The Hague would deliver an assessment that, according to him, “will clearly distinguish the aggressor from the victim.”
“Because equating the aggressor with the victim would be a second murder of the victim,” Sali declared, ending with the message: “Freedom has a name!”
