The President of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani, visited Prekaz in honor of the November 28 holiday.
She commemorated Commander Adem Jashari and the first public appearance of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA).
Speaking about Adem Jashari, Osmani said he was destined for greatness, adding, “Adem Jashari is an eternal hero, just like the everlasting KLA.”
“Born on November 28, the day of Albania’s Independence and the raising of the national flag in Vlora, the legendary commander Adem Jashari was a man destined for greatness. This sacred day for our nation gained even greater meaning with the birth of the supreme commander and his unwavering dedication to the ideals of freedom and national independence. Adem Jashari is the heart of our struggle, the symbol of resistance, and the eternal torch of our freedom.
On this day, when the KLA made its first public appearance among the people, we honor not only the birthday of the legendary commander but also his work, sacrifice, and the army he led, along with the ideals for which he gave everything. Adem Jashari is an eternal hero, just like the everlasting KLA! He lives on!”
