Former President Alfred Moisiu participated in the massive protest held today in "Skënderbej" Square in Tirana, in support of former KLA leaders.
Moisiu said that the fighters of the Kosovo Liberation Army did not commit crimes, but rather performed the highest duty known to history - the liberation of Kosovo and the protection of the people.
At the protest in Tirana, in support of former KLA leaders who are being tried by the Special Court in The Hague, Moisiu said that the rally is aimed at protecting national dignity and raising his voice against the injustices being done to former KLA leaders.
"In 2022, we were in The Hague in the detention rooms to meet personally with President Thaçi, with Jakup Krasniqi, Kadri Veseli and Rexhep Selimi. In the meeting with these men, I understood and saw that those brave men were not afraid, but are strong men who remained calm and ready to sacrifice to cleanse the war of the KLA and the entire Kosovar people, from the stain that those who do not want the best for Albanians are unjustly trying to give. They have not committed crimes, but have performed the highest duty that contemporary history knows - the liberation of Kosovo and the protection of their people", said Moisiu.
He added that former KLA leaders are being held in detention without evidence.
He emphasized that it is time to stop being silent.
"Kosovo's freedom is not a gift. It was won with blood, sacrifices and determination, so today more than ever we must be determined and united to protect the future of our nation," he said.
