The President of the Republic of Kosovo Vjosa Osmani Sadriu, together with the Speaker of the Assembly of Kosovo Glauk Konjufca, Prime Minister Albin Kurti as well as ministers of the Government of Kosovo, paid tribute today at the “Adem Jashari” Memorial Complex in Prekaz, on the occasion of the KLA Epopee.
President Osmani said that just like every citizen of the Republic of Kosovo, like every Albanian regardless of where they live, we are here in the historical Prekaz to honor the sacrifice, bravery and courage of the Jashari family, led by the legendary commander-in-chief, Adem Jashari.
“Whose sacrifice and bravery laid the strong foundations of our state. Our country today is on the right path precisely because we find inspiration with the Jasharajs. And our country will be successful and will be eternal precisely because the foundations they laid are strong and unbreakable,” said President Osmani.
President Osmani further added that on these three days of the KLA Epopee, as on every other day of the year, it is an opportunity for all the citizens of Kosovo to show their remembrance for all the women and children of the Jashari family who were not spared by the Serbian genocidal regime.
“Today as well and in fact on these three days of the KLA Epopee, as on every other day of the year, it is an opportunity for all the citizens of Kosovo to show their remembrance for all the women and children of the Jashari family who were not spared by the Serbian genocidal regime. As you know, there were 5 and 6-year-old children among those killed. Of course, the memory for them, their sacrifice, will be eternal for all of Kosovo, free today due to this sacrifice,” emphasized Madam President.
President Osmani, Speaker of the Assembly Konjufca and Prime Minister Kurti also visited the Jashari family, where they were received by Rifat Jashari.
On this occasion, President Osmani presented Rifat Jashari with the “Order of Freedom” Medal, having previously awarded the medal to him.
