Without half of the state and half of the population (Koha online)

Koha Ditore’s publisher, Falka Surroi, criticizes Kosovo political leaders engaged in the dialogue with Serbia, for lack of transparency on the recently reached agreement on justice. According to her, point 9 of this agreement legalizes Serbia as a decision making party in Kosovo’s justice system. She claims that the agreement discriminates everyone in Kosovo but Serbs. She wonders where Kosovo politicians see the “balanced proportion” of the agreement which plans establishment of a court for several Kosovo municipalities, which would engage 154 Serbs and 122 Albanians for a population which is 191 thousand Albanian and 39 thousand Serb. She considers the Kosovo delegation in these talks illegitimate, due to their lacking of prior consent of the Assembly to reach the agreement, and refers to them as “the Chinese delegation.”

“Due to your incapability to decide, think or act on your own, which would prevent you from being blackmailed by everyone, we have an unwanted government, an economic abyss, massive emigration of people,” writes Surroi, using the ironical saying used in Pristina these days that there is no hope, because hope also left for Hungary.  According to Surroi, Kosovo politicians are sacrificing Kosovo’s fragile statehood for the sake of the stability of the region, and for the world to be able to claim that Kosovo is a success story, and that it was worth of investment.

Surroi also criticizes the President of Kosovo, Atifete Jahjaga, arguing with her statement made to the population in Gjilan/Gnjilane that “…. only together we can reach our main goal, Euro-Atlantic integration.” Apologies President, she writes, but our main intention is a normal life in a normal, functional and independent state where we would not depend eternally on the instructions of the foreigners, and where we would not be robed and lied every single day. Also, where we would not be led by political leaders that have as their only satisfaction a praise by some U.S. official, for instance for “her leadership and conduction of the whole process of dialogue facilitation between the leaders of political parties, which resulted with the solution to the institutional crisis and creation of institutions of Kosovo.”
