Kosovo Assembly MP from Vetevendosje movement, Rexhep Selimi, said that demarcation of the border with Montenegro and Association of the Serb-majority Municipalities would not pass at the Assembly despite the return of the Serbian List at the Assembly. “The government by all means needs return of the Serbian List at the Assembly in order to fight Vetevendosje’s and opposition’s cause,” Selimi said. However, he added, “we are determined to stop the Association and demarcation even if they invite a Russian list.”

Vetevendosje has condemned last night’s attack on one of its activists, Agron Kabashi, as “a cowardly act by the criminal regime”.

Molliqaj said the attack on Kabashi was premeditated and occurred shortly after the publication of a poll results which showed Vetevendosje being the most supported party in Kosovo.

The leader of the Vetevendosje movement, Visar Ymeri, said today at the roundtable organized by this party that the law on KSF is not transforming it into an army as expected, instead it is only expanding its competencies.

Ymeri said that creation of the army has been promised ever since the liberation of Kosovo. According to him, constitutional amendments that would allow creation of Armed Forces were made before the 2014 elections.

Enver Robelli writes today in his opinion piece that Hashim Thaci’s and his dependents’ concerns, are not Kosovo’s concerns, therefore Pristina should coordinate with NATO, the U.S. and the EU with regards to the creation of the army.

Head of the Parliamentary Group of the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo, Pal Lekaj, proposed today again during the Assembly session a resolution related to Ramush Haradinaj’s case. He said that discussions with Serbia should suspend until Haradinaj’s release.

The coalition government parties, the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) and the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) were pro resolution for Haradinaj, however they said that the text of the resolution should be harmonized.

Vetevendosje has come out against President Hashim Thaci’s idea to create an armed force by changing the current law on the Kosovo Security Force (KSF). Vetevendosje deputy leader, Driton Caushi, said Thaci has failed to deliver on all his promises, and the latest one will be no different. “We have continuously supported the formation of the Kosovo Armed Forces by changing the Constitution,” Caushi said.
