Kosovo Albanian Terrorists Should be Punished, Not Rewarded

Kostunica: International Community Should Punish the Terrorists, Instead of Rewarding Them
BELGRADE, Serbia, Feb. 20, 2007 (Source: Tanjug) — Serbian Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica said on Tuesday that the international community must immediately most strongly respond to all the threats from Albanian Muslim separatists, especially to the threats that they will resort to terrorism and violence if Serbian Kosovo province does not become another Albanian state.
There are increasingly open and obvious threats of violence from the Kosovo Albanian separatists ahead of the onset of the Vienna negotiations, Kostunica said.
“The international community must immediately respond most strongly to their blackmail that they will resort to terrorism and violence unless they get another Albanian state, on the territory of Serbia,” the Serbian Prime Minister said in a statement presented to Tanjug by the Government Press Relations Office.
“It has never yet happened that the international community gives in to terrorist threats and even rewards terrorists with the gift of a state,” Kostunica said.
“It is time that Albanian separatists get a clear message from the international community that they will be most severely punished for any act of violence, instead of being rewarded,” the Serbian Prime Minister concluded.
Radical Albanian Muslim Vetëvendosje Movement Announces New Demonstrations in Kosovo Province
PRISTINA, Serbia, Feb. 20, 2007 (Source: Tanjug) — The Kosovo Albanian radical movement Vetëvendosje (“Self-Determination”) on Tuesday announced it would stage new protests in Pristina on March 3 “against those who are responsible for the death of two demonstrators” at the previous violent protest they held on Feb 10.
Vetëvendosje deputy leader Gljauk Konjufca, currently in custody for organizing the Feb 10 violent demonstrations, said that this protest would be “peaceful and against those responsible for the death of the two demonstrators.”
Yeah, right. After seeing their earlier wild-hordes-raging exercise, also announced as “peaceful protest,” one shudders to think how would Vetëvendosje thugs define violent demonstrations.
