During the group stage of the European Championship, Nat’s fans made only positive headlines. But a news from UEFA has been received by the Swiss Albanian newspaper “Le Canton27.ch”, which states that the Swiss Football Federation must now pay a fine from UEFA due to the UÇK flag.
The Disciplinary Commission of the European Football Union (UEFA) fined the Swiss Football Federation (SFV) a total of 27,000 francs for the conduct of fans, KLA in the stands during the group stage matches of the European Championship in Germany.
The flag of the KLA for the Albanians is the goal of the peace and freedom of Kosovo, which has no price.
In fact, the Swiss newspaper “Le Cantoln27.ch” has learned that UEFA initially fined the FZF a larger amount, but it was reduced to 91 thousand francs after the appeal. Regardless of why the flag of the Kosovo army with which Kosovo was liberated from the Serbian occupier, businessmen and expatriates in Germany and Switzerland have declared to the Swiss Albanian newspaper “Le Canton27.ch” that “freedom has no price”. Therefore, the Albanian diaspora has expressed its willingness to pay the penalty for the FZF of Switzerland.
“When with that flag we gave our lives and freed our country from fascists and centuries-old Serbian occupiers who committed barbaric crimes and genocide against the civilian population, violating over 20 thousand Albanian women. That flag with three letters has written the history of Kosovo and we will protect it like the eyes of our foreheads and we will be ready to pay the punishment of UEFA. The flag of the KLA for the Albanians is the goal of the peace and freedom of Kosovo that has no price! To punish someone for the KLA flag means to stand in solidarity with Serbian terror!”, representatives of the Albanian community in Switzerland and Germany told Le Canton27.ch.
Surprisingly, the stake for the opening win against Hungary is the highest at 40,000 francs. Especially after Breel Embolo’s goal to make the score 3-1, cups fell on the field. 24,000 francs are needed for the 1-1 draw against Scotland, and another 27,000 francs for the final group game against Germany (1-1). This part of the fine also includes thrown paper balls, two small pyros and the KLA flag displayed in the fan section.
It is learned that UEFA has decided to fine the Swiss Football Federation with 27,000 francs due to the incidents with the fans in the match of the third round of Group A with Germany (1:1). During this match, Swiss fans threw pyrotechnics onto the field and raised the KLA flag in the stands.
It is not only on the field that Switzerland has really delivered in this European Championship so far. What Switzerland’s fans showed in the first three group games was also great cinema. With huge fan marches before the two matches in Cologne and tens of thousands of rowdy supporters in stadiums, Switzerland caused a stir across Europe. At least from the fans’ point of view, we can declare ambitions for the European Championship title.
The UEFA Disciplinary Commission fined the FS of Switzerland 40,000 francs for the behavior of the fans in the first round match of Group A against Hungary (3:1), and 24,000 francs for the incidents in the duel with Scotland (1: 1).
