The government head stated that “nor would freedom and democracy for Albanians or the Republic of Kosovo have existed without the strategic allies of the Albanians, good friends on the worst days.”

“A quarter of a century from today, NATO’s entry into Kosovo serves as a reminder to everyone that without the strategic allies of the Albanians, good friends on the worst days, there would be no Republic of Kosovo, nor freedom and democracy for Albanians in Kosovo! God bless our allies!” Rama said via the social media.

Therefore – he went on saying – this is the day to reflect deeply and get Kosovo out of the deadlock into which the absurd quarrel with our allies has placed it! Kosovo must come out through dialogue, not with police, with concrete ideas, not with propaganda, with good friends, not with mistreatment of friends.”
