The President of the Republic of Kosovo Vjosa Osmani, paid homage today at the “Adem Jashari” Memorial Complex in Prekaz, on the occasion of the 27th anniversary of the KLA Epopee.
President Osmani said that today, like every year, we commemorate the Kosovo Liberation Army Epopee, which is dedicated to our joint commemoration in this times of freedom for each martyr, for each hero, for each fallen who gave his life for Kosovo, but above all, it is dedicated to the sacrifice, courage and unparalleled bravery shown by the Jashari family on March 5, 6 and 7, 1998, led by the legendary commander, Adem Jashari.
“They fought much longer than just during the war years, thus becoming the emblem of the Kosovo Liberation Army and at the same time transforming the Jashari Towers into a fortress of freedom symbol, which even today defends Kosovo, protects its freedom, its independence and its sovereignty,” said President Osmani.
According to President Osmani, from here, not only us as a generation that experienced the war, but also the younger generations, even our children, get inspired for the path ahead.
“From here, not only us as a generation that experienced the war, but also the younger generations, even our children, are inspired for the path ahead, for the defense of the freedom achieved with sacrifice and blood, but above all, we are reminded of how high the price paid for our freedom was, because in addition to the legendary commander, who fought together with his father, Shaban, his brother Hamza and many other family members, as you know, the overwhelming majority of those who fell from the Jashari family were women and children, which makes this sacrifice of the Jashari family even greater and more sacred,” the President emphasized.
Madam President said that we must never forget, we must never deviate from the paved path, from this sacrifice of heroes, martyrs, and the fallen.
“We must never forget, we must never deviate from the paved path, from this sacrifice of heroes, martyrs and fallen, and this path and this sacrifice will always serve to each of us as a guiding light in strengthening Kosovo, which is becoming stronger and more prosperous for its citizens every day. Glory to all the heroes of the nation! Long live the Kosovo Liberation Army and the Republic of Kosovo, for which they gave their lives!”, said President Osmani.
