– Prime Minister Kurti and President Osmani are the nightmare of hegemonic Serbia

The impressive victory of Prime Minister Albin Kurti in the elections of December 28 was a heavy blow to racist, fascist, and hegemonic Serbia. Millions of dollars spent on lobbying in America, and millions more on buying the press and spies in Kosova and all Albanian lands, went to waste.

If Kurti’s victory is crowned with the re-election of Mrs. Vjosa Osmani as President, the Serbian failure will be a great achievement for Kosova. The combination of two great leaders Osmani and Kurti is a serious blow to the sick Serbian ambitions of returning to Kosova and the illusion of so-called “Serbian world”.

For this reason, Serbian politicians, led by the criminal Vučić, have been seized by panic. They have now concentrated all their forces on preventing her re-election as President at any cost.

This is proven by the engagement of their servants against President Osmani throughout Albanian lands. Among the first was a certain character Shqiprim Arifi from the Presheva Valley, who began to slander her, trying to blame her for the difficult situation of the Albanian population of Presheva, Bujanovc, and Medvegja, whose rights are cruelly oppressed by Serbia.

Serbian diplomats cannot breathe in the presence of President Osmani in international forums. Even the Serbian arch-criminal Aleksandar Vučić experienced this at the United Nations session. Vjosa’s words struck him like arrows. Facing the victims of Serbian genocide left him judged and humiliated before the whole world.

This single fact alone should be enough for the “Iron Lady,” Vjosa Osmani, to be re-elected President for another term.

Recently, many proposals have been made for various potential presidential candidates. Some are serious, but most are completely wrong, naive, and sometimes ridiculous. All of them are entirely unnecessary.

Kosova needs a president who is capable and strong, who submits to no one, with broad popular support like Ms. Vjosa Osmani—not a president chosen through bargaining and party manipulations.

Of course, a presidential candidate should be unifying. This is a wish or a beautiful word that should not be misused to refuse to vote for the president. Unifying everyone is impossible. It is especially difficult to unite those who do not want to unite. Then, there can be no unification with destructive and hostile elements like the “Serbian List” and its supporters.

The most important thing is the candidate’s qualifications. Under no circumstances should Kosova have a President, Prime Minister, or Minister of Foreign Affairs who does not speak English well. The time of communicating through interpreters in international meetings has passed. Knowledge of several foreign languages is welcome.

Educational preparation, fluent English, clear expression, political experience, dedication, determination, courage, the ability to penetrate international circles, new connections, strengthening strategic relations with the USA and partner countries, respect from leading international figures, a democratic institutional approach, and broad popular support make Ms. Vjosa Osmani an unquestionable candidate.

President Vjosa Osmani and Prime Minister Albin Kurti were and remain leaders of hope, change, and the salvation of Kosova. Leaders with great ability and strong character like them submit to no one. They are different, uncorrupted politicians who place the interests of the state above personal interests. Their achievements are shared. They have already become an inspiration even for regional countries and Western democracies.

Naturally, they are not completely infallible, but their mistakes have never harmed state and national interests. In order to continue their successes, they must attract and engage many skilled, educated, professional, and uncorrupted people.

Close cooperation of the President with the Prime Minister, the government, and state institutions for state interests is completely normal and obligatory. Of course, she must also cooperate with opposition parties as needed. Preferences and sympathies without obvious bias are understandable. But it cannot be expected of her to cooperate with those who work against the interests of the people and the state.

Continuing many good works and completing the processes already begun in the interest of the state makes the nomination of Ms. Vjosa Osmani for President by Prime Minister Albin Kurti inevitable. The absolute majority of the people of Kosova also eagerly await this.

Her re-election is in the interest of the state and the nation, and also of all political parties if they view matters wisely. Responsibility for voting for President Osmani belongs to everyone, not only to the winning party. It would be a big mistake for opposition MPs to block the normal voting process by abandoning their workplaces in Parliament. This would be an anti-democratic and anti-state action.

If the opposition continues blockades in the hope of benefiting from creating institutional chaos, it will make a catastrophic mistake. The people are tired of unnecessary elections. Sending the country into new extraordinary elections will be severely punished by the people. Thus, Kosova risks being left with a very weak opposition or even no opposition at all.

This would also damage relations with international friends, especially America, which undoubtedly has preferences for Ms. Osmani. How would the opposition justify weakening relations with friends, when it has never stopped accusing Kurti of the same thing?!

The four new recognitions over the past year and her election to the Board of Peace created by President Trump make it impossible for any normal politician to block her re-election.

Voting for President Osmani would be the first sign showing the people that the opposition parties PDK, LDK, and AAK have understood their past mistakes and will change for the better. Only then would their possibilities to win the people’s votes in the future become realistic.

The establishment of state institutions, the urgent approval of the budget and international financial agreements, and the re-election of President Osmani without delay and without problems place Kosova in a very favorable position.
President Osmani and Prime Minister Kurti complement each other perfectly in leading the state, each from their own position. The people rightly expect a lot from them in this term, both in internal development and in foreign policy.
With their abilities, experience, and dedicated work, the chances are very real for a developed, strong economically and militarily Kosova. Membership in NATO and opening the path to integration into the European Union will become reality.

No one and nothing can stop our Dardanian Kosova on its sacred path of freedom and independence, toward national unification. The legacy of the heroes and martyrs of the centuries-long resistance for freedom must be fulfilled.
