Adriatik Kelmendi writes that Kosovo government and opposition had their chance to use each other in order to draw the red line for Belgrade’s destabilizing impact in Kosovo “and to end the Jablanovic episode. However, he continues to be a Minister of Kosovo government considering for his chief the Prime Minister of Serbia, and using his opportunity to fail Kosovo.

Jablanovic can freely brag to Vucic that he managed to divide Albanians in a month more than anyone else after the liberation. Right after the protests of the “Mothers’ Cries” in Gjakova, Isa Mustafa’s government had its chance to explain in a wise manner to the Quint states why it is important to dismiss Jablanovic, and why do reckless statements aggravate interethnic relations,” wrtites Kelmendi. He considers that by failing to do so, the government of Kosovo only encouraged the Serbian List for further provocations.

“On Saturday, and especially on Tuesday, Albanian brothers and sisters and no one else clashed with each other. However there was more than a need for a protest, because when the Government fails to address an issue, there is no reason for the population not to do so, and there is no reason for the opposition parties not to use this situation,” he writes. However he also considers that the three opposition parties failed in organizing the protests in the same manner that the government failed to address Jablanovic and Trepca cases. He criticizes the opposition parties especially regarding what he considers to be “a childish” 15 minute ultimatum to the police, to remove barricades in front of the government building. He even asks what if the Serbian List decided someday to protest and set the same ultimatum to the police, and describes further that it is unimaginable for someone to attempt to enter the White House space or that of the British Parliament in London.

“However, there is no reason for the political parties in the government and those in opposition to barricade, stating that they would not give up to the pressure of the other party and that they would not act in accordance to the other party’s demands. Jablanovic case cannot be silenced and put under the rug. This would mean that it is enough to belong to the Serb ethnicity to be able to offend and insult any one whenever you feel like it, and then make some half apology in order to be able to start all over the next day,” writes Kelmendi.

He considers that if Jablanovic and Trepca cases fail to be addressed, this would mean that Kosovo is not a democratic and an independent state and that Serbia can decide on the fate of Kosovo enterprises. “If these things do not change, and if majority of Albanians remain clashing in the streets, only one party will be rubbing hands with joy: Jablanovi’c and Vucic’s provocators,” concludes Kelmendi.
