NOVOROSSIA TODAY SPECIAL EDITION BREAKING NEWS ! WAR CRIMINAL SET FREE FROM FRENCH APPEALS COURT, ALSO,,THE CLINTON TIES TO THIS BARBARIC MONSTER, MURDERER AND HUMAN ORGAN TRAFFICKER !
A French appeals court on Thursday released the former Kosovo prime minister Ramush Haradinaj, who was a guerrilla commander during the 1998-1999 Kosovo war.
Gangster scum murderer Ramush Haradinaj now a Kosovo politician, flew into France on January 4, where French authorities detained him at the request of Serbia, which considers him a “war criminal” for his role in the conflict.
The arrest further strained brittle diplomatic ties between Serbia and Kosovo. In January, Serbia said it would hit back if France declined to extradite Haradinaj.
Kosovo’s so-called President Hashim Thaci said the court decision was “good news for the Haradinaj family and Kosovo.”
“Once again it is proven that the slanders of the Serb secret services against the Kosovo Liberation Army [the wartime guerrilla force] are unfounded and not taken into consideration by the democratic world,” Thaci said.
A Serbian court has charged Haradinaj with killings, torture and abductions of Serbs, ethnic Albanians and minority Roma people during and after the 1998-1999 war. Officials said all evidence have been handed over to the French court.
In 2005 and 2007, Haradinaj was tried and acquitted of war crimes at a UN war crimes tribunal in The Hague.
Kosovo wants Belgrade to drop its efforts to prosecute people linked to the conflict.
The 1998-1999 war pitted ethnic Albanian guerrillas seeking independence for the southern Serbian province of Kosovo against Serbia’s forces, who withdrew from the territory after an 11-week NATO bombing campaign.
The war ended in June 1999 towards the end of the break-up of the former Yugoslavia.
Albanian-majority Kosovo has a population of some 1.8 million. It unilaterally proclaimed independence in 2008, a move that Serbia refuses to recognise.
Former Kosovo prime minister, Ramush Haradinaj, has been released by the Colmar Court in France.
The AAK leader, Haradinaj appeared today before the Court of Appeals in Colmar of France, and after a short court session the judges decided to release him. He was detained by French authorities on 4 January on Serbia’s warrant, for allegedly war crimes committed during 1998-99. Serbia asked Haradinaj’s extradition. In a statement to journalists while leaving the court in Colmar, Haradinaj said that he will return to Kosovo soon.
************************************ THE CLINTON TIES AND KNOWING WELL WHO THIS MONSTER WAS ******************
The Clinton Foundation invited the prime minister of Kosovo to the 2011 Clinton Global Initiative annual meeting knowing full well that he had been implicated in a human organ trafficking scheme as leader of the Kosovo Liberation Army in the late 1990s.
“What are USG views on WJC inviting former Kosovo PM [Hashim] Thaci and the current PM to CGI?” Clinton Foundation foreign policy adviser Amitabh Desai wrote in an Aug. 17, 2011 email to several top Hillary Clinton State Department officials.
“Is Thaci still embroiled in organ harvesting issues and is that of consequence?” Desai asked in the email, which the State Department recently released to Citizens United.
Desai clarified in a follow-up email that Thaci was actually prime minister at the time. He now serves as president of Kosovo.
Thaci and his Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) were first accused of human organ trafficking in 2010 in a report from the Council of Europe.
The 27-page report alleged that Thaci ran a “mafia-like” group of Albanian nationals — dubbed the “Drenica group” — who smuggled heroin and human organs in order to help finance the Kosovo Liberation Army’s fight against Yugoslav and Serbian forces in the 1998-99 Kosovo War.
The Guardian obtained the report in Dec. 2010 and reported:
It names Thaçi as having over the last decade exerted “violent control” over the heroin trade. Figures from Thaçi’s inner circle are also accused of taking captives across the border into Albania after the war, where a number of Serbs are said to have been murdered for their kidneys, which were sold on the black market.
Thaci’s alleged atrocities, which have not led to prosecution for him or anyone in the KLA, have been laid out in detail in other news reports.
Vice News reported: in 2014 that an American diplomat who was appointed in 2011 by the European Union to investigate the claims, found that the KLA murdered 10 Serbian and Albanian prisoners and sold their kidneys and livers on the black market.
Vice also reported that Thaci was known in his KLA days as “The Snake.”
Despite awareness of the gruesome allegations against Thaci, the Clinton State Department appears to have approved him to attend the 2011 CGI conclave. He also attended in 2012 and 2013.
His office took advantage of the meetings, posting pictures from the events on government websites. Kosovar news outlets also picked up stories of the meetings and added pictures of Thaci meeting both of the Clintons.
Thaci even sat next to Hillary Clinton at the 2013 meeting, which was held more than six months after she left the State Department.
The Bill Clinton administration was forced to walk a fine line during the Kosovo War, in which the KLA fought with NATO support against Yugoslav forces, led by Slobodon Milosevic.
But while the Clinton White House had Milosevic as at the top of its enemy list at the time, administration officials were also critical of KLA.
On Feb. 23, 1998, Robert Gelbard, Clinton’s special envoy to the Balkans, said that the KLA is “without any questions, a terrorist group.” He also said that “we condemn very strongly terrorist activities in Kosovo.”
Despite that critique, Bill Clinton is regarded as a hero in Kosovo for his opposition to Milosevic. A boulevard in Pristina, Kosovo’s capital city, is named after the Democrat. A statue of Clinton was also erected there in 2009.
Thaci and his government have another Clinton connection. In 2012, the Republic of Kosovo signed a $50,000-a-month lobbying contract with The Podesta Group, a lobbying firm co-founded by brothers John and Tony Podesta.
John is Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman. Tony runs the lobbying shop and has bundled more than $250,000 in campaign contributions for Clinton. His signature appears on agreements with the Republic of Kosovo disclosed under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).
The agreement states that the Podesta Group would “research and analyze issues of concern to the principal; counsel the principal on U.S. policies of concern, activities in Congress and the Executive branch and developments on the U.S. political scene generally; and maintain contact, as necessary, with Members of Congress and their staff, Executive branch officials, members of the press, and nongovernmental organizations.”
Podesta Group’s relationship with Kosovo and other foreign governments is mentioned in the Wikileaks dump of John Podesta’s hacked emails.
In an April 13, 2015 email chain, Clinton campaign officials are seen discussing whether to take campaign donations from lobbyists registered under FARA.
After internal debate on the issue, Clinton’s campaign manager, Robby Mook, decided to continue accepting the money.
“I’m ok just taking the money and dealing with any attacks,” he wrote.
