Koha Ditore’s publisher Flaka Surroi writes in an opinion piece that the outcome of the events in the Kosovo Assembly and those in Brussels will be that Serbia will gallop towards EU while Kosovo will remain complacent in the belief it is a success story. According to Surroi, last Friday’s failed vote of the Assembly of Kosovo for establishment of specialist chambers gave the impression of being “an orchestrated event” which began with the “symbolic” gathering of about 150 Kosovo Liberation Army veterans who decided to end the protest against the establishment of the court while the Assembly was still in session. “Them leaving at 15.00hrs showed that they were not serious and that the outcome of the session was already known”. Another aspect that led to the belief that the failed vote was all part of a pre-set scenario, was the “extraordinary flexibility” of Assembly Speaker Kadri Veseli who pledged to give the floor to any MP wanting to do speak and to top this all of, there was the Democratic Party of Kosovo leader Hashim Thaci’s speech. Thaci’s “nonchalance and impassive face showed that he had already calculated everything”.  All this happened at a time when another round of talks between Pristina and Belgrade was taking place in Brussels which will likely end in signing of an agreement that will bring about the creation of a new Kosovo federation, adds Surroi. She says if the international community is serious about establishing the specialist chambers, they will most definitely send the issue at the UN Security Council and despite what was said in the Assembly on Friday that this would revive the UN SC resolution 1244, the fact of the matter is that this Resolution is actually still in force. “This is confirmed by the fact that the UN mission still functions in Kosovo and we never discarded the Resolution because recognition of our independence was never voted there”, writes Surroi. If, on the other hand, the international community is not serious about the court, an alternative could be the setting up of a war crimes court within the Kosovo’s legal framework.  Whichever scenario unfolds, one thing is for sure and that is that the responsibility for the current situation falls with the political leadership in Kosovo.
