The Association of the Veterans of the Kosovo Liberation Army (UCK) convened today to discuss the arrest and then release of the war veteran Faik Fazliu.

The association announced that a protest will take place on June 12, while claiming that PM Albin Kurti and some of his cabinet members, namely Donika Gërvalla and Xhelal Sveçla are throwing accusations against UCK.

In their press release, they express concern over a growing tendency to accuse former war commanders, particularly coming from foreign minister Gërvalla and interior minister Sveçla.

“We are all aware that the institutions of Kosovo are openly going against national values”.

According to them, the fact that a war veteran was detained and allegedly harassed should be a matter of concern for all political parties.
