Through a social media post, Prime Minister Edi Rama described the Specialist Chambers’ decision as “disgraceful,” accompanying his reaction with an image of Europe encircled by barbed wire.

“It is utterly disgraceful”, Rama writes.

Former Kosovo president Hashim Thaçi was found guilty of war crimes and sentenced to 25 years in prison by the Specialist Chambers in The Hague, the same term handed down to Jakup Krasniqi. Kadri Veseli received an 18‑year sentence, while Rexhep Selimi was sentenced to 13 years.
