Opposition MPs decided to leave the Assembly session after the decision of the French court to postpone the verdict for the former Prime Minister of Kosovo Ramush Haradinaj for 6 April.
Kosovo Assembly MP from the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK), said that today’s decision of a provincial court in France to extend Haradinaj’s staying in France is a clear abuse of the human rights and a tendency to discredit an entire war.
“What we saw today from Colmar was nothing more than a kidnaping. Despite the fact that Haradinaj surrendered voluntarily in 2005 and was twice found innocent by the most senior European court, he is being kept hostage by a European state,” he said.
Lekaj said that Haradinaj should be released as soon as possible “otherwise, we would see it as a local and international combination to eliminate him from the political scene only because he is defending Kosovo,” Lekaj said that requested interruption of the session as well as reflection of Kosovo’s institutions.
