Prime Minister Edi Rama not only did not withdraw from his statement of the day before that "KFOR" should take control of the north of Kosovo, but went even further, asking the highest levels of NATO s for such a thing to happen as soon as possible, since as he says, "the risk of escalation of the conflict is alarming".
After the statement the day before, in Kosovo there were strong reactions against him, arguing that the police forces of Kosovo should be the ones that should have under control the entire territory of the country, including the north.
Rama does not hesitate to make fun of the Kosovo Albanians who opposed him, saying that they are "inflating the conspiracy balloon", as they call him - as he writes - "Vuqiqi's brother".
Rama also gives three reasons why KFOR should take control of the North of Kosovo.
Rama's full reaction:
In the framework of Albania's support for guaranteeing security in the north of Kosovo and taking control from KFOR, at this stage when the risk of escalation of the conflict is alarming, we communicated at the highest levels of the Euro-Atlantic alliance and found a maximum readiness. On the other hand, we have conveyed to the allies the reasons for our non-alignment with the latest EU statement, continuing to request their public position, regarding the armed criminal group that killed the Kosovo police officer and regarding the national mourning in Belgrade for annihilated members of that group.
To those in Pristina who, instead of focusing 100% on the extraordinary challenge they have, find time to blow up the conspiracy balloon of "Vuqiq's brother" on Facebook, through political profiles or fake profiles, confusing the reasons for non-compliance. their request publicly explained yesterday for KFOR, with my warning a few months ago about the "Republic of KFOR", I remind them today that:
1. KFOR is NATO and not an occupying force on account of Serbia, nor a force separating the territory of the Republic of Kosovo, but on the contrary a very big guarantee in any case of threat!
2. Unë e thashë qartë dje se këtë kërkesë e ka bërë edhe Presidentja Osmani dhe e shpjegova më tej se kjo që kërkoj sot nuk ka lidhje me atë çka kam shprehur disa muaj më parë, si frikë se mund të ndodhë nëse situata degradon, në mungesë të rezultateve të dialogut. Sepse, siç e shpjegova edhe dje, “nuk jemi akoma aty” dhe që të mos shkohet nesër deri aty, duhet që KFOR-i të marrë në kontroll veriun një orë e më parë.
3. Everyone knows the simple truth that in any case and for any new operational need in the territory of Kosovo, KFOR harmonizes its actions with the state authorities of Kosovo and with the security forces of the Republic of Kosovo, therefore it is as painful as it is funny, that even in this very serious situation for security in the north of Kosovo, politicians with public profiles or with fake profiles in Prishtina deal with such low manipulations of their citizens' emotions, deliberately distorting their attitudes My. Pity for them, but for the brave political and media business of Tirana, who are ready to set fire to Kosovo itself, together with Albania for the imaginary overthrow of my "regime", I have not a single second to lose!
