Kosovo Assembly Speaker Albulena Haxhiu has received the annual work report of the Institute for Crimes Committed During the War in Kosovo, reaffirming the Assembly’s continued support for documenting wartime crimes and identifying victims.
Haxhiu met with the Institute’s Executive Director, Atdhe Hetemi, who formally presented the institution’s annual report.
Following the meeting, Haxhiu said she had been briefed on the Institute’s activities over the past year, particularly its work on verifying information and documentation relating to each individual victim of the Kosovo war.
She recalled that the verification process provided the basis for a preliminary list of war victims, which was published in July.
“For the first time, the institutions of the Republic of Kosovo have registered war victims individually, relying on verified documents and testimonies,” Haxhiu said in a statement.
She stressed that the Kosovo Assembly would continue supporting the Institute’s work and expressed appreciation to Hetemi and his staff for their professionalism and commitment to documenting crimes committed during the war.
