The Prime Minister of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, today honored the victims of the Reçak Massacre, where he thanked the former ambassador of the OSCE mission in Kosovo, William Walker, who told the world what had happened in this country.
The former head of the OSCE monitoring mission in Kosovo, Ambassador William Walker, described the Reçak Massacre as a crime against humanity.
"The massacre of Recak here 25 years ago, where 45 Albanian civilians were killed, shocked the international public opinion, as well as world diplomacy and made the military intervention of NATO necessary to stop Serbia's genocide in Kosovo. When the Reçak massacre happened, Ambassador William Walker as the leader of the OSCE mission in Kosovo came here to the villagers and spoke the truth, he said this is a massacre and a crime against humanity. We know that the truth is the greatest enemy of dictators and chauvinists, so to this day, Ambassador William Walker continues to be the most attacked and hated international in Serbia, where an authoritarian regime continues to dominate, in which case ex- the minister of information of that time is today the president of Serbia" , said Kurti.
Kurti also commemorated the 11 soldiers of the Kosovo Liberation Army, who fell in battle protecting the bodies massacred in this village
" On January 15, in an extremely cold winter, this macabre crime happened, while the burial of 45 civilians happened only four weeks later because there was a big war for Kosovo. We also have 11 KLA soldiers who have fallen in battle for the protection of the troops massacred by Serbia, and those four weeks show that Serbia has tried to distort the truth, justify the crime, and that is why I am once again emphasizing the importance of the truth of Ambassador William Walker, to whom we are grateful that at a historical moment for our people he spoke only the truth ", Kurti said.
This morning, the president of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani, and relatives and family members of the victims paid their respects.
