"Mr President, I respect the opinion of the European Council which, in 2003, promised all Western Balkan countries that they could become EU members. In my opinion, however, fulfilling this promise in relation to the current administration of Hashim Thaci makes a mockery of the principles of humanity and justice on which we base the co-existence of peoples in the Union. The report of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe points to the serious crimes committed by the Drenica group against Serbs in particular, but also against uncooperative Albanians in this province. Witnesses to these crimes are still being terrorised and murdered, which shows that the work of the EU mission for the rule of law in Kosovo has fallen short, and that the mission cannot, in a mafia-infested environment, document the crimes of the Kosovo Liberation Army with complete objectivity. I firmly believe that unless there is a thorough investigation of all the allegations made by the Council of Europe, we can have no right to legitimise through joint negotiations a regime led by people under investigation for serious crimes."@en1
