President of the Serbian Assembly's Committee on Kosovo and Metohija Milovan Drecun said today that, after appointing Bashkim Jashari as the new commander of the Kosovo Security Force (KSF), it is clear that Prime Minister of the Provisional Institutions of Pristina Albin Kurti "cannot get from under the coat of the criminal organization KLA (Kosovo Liberation Army)."

"One should keep in mind that he belongs to an organized criminal clan. His uncle was Adem Jashari, who was killed in clashes with our security forces, but it is particularly interesting that Bashkim Jashari has been one of the zone commanders in the so-called Kosovo Protection Corps (KPC) since 2003 which is precisely when he was suspected of some criminal activities," Drecun told RTS.

He stressed that it is "very problematic for such a person to become the head of their so-called future army."

What is known about Jashari is only negative, says Drecun and points out that the provisional institutions in Pristina are trying to create an image of the KSF as some kind of a multiethnic formation, while at the same time bringing to its helm a man who is ready to do anything against the Serb people's interests.

"The KSF is a continuation of the activities of the terrorist Kosovo Liberation Army, under another name. After the arrival of international forces, the obligation under (UN) Resolution 1244 was to demobilize the KLA. Instead, they merely had 5,000 (KLA) members change into the uniforms of the Kosovo Protection Corps, which was organized in the same way as the KLA, in the same areas of responsibility. Its successor is the KSF," said Drecun.

He stressed that after the appointment of Jashari, it is clear that Kurti needs an obedient man to carry out the activities he plans in the coming period, especially in the north of Kosovo and Metohija.

"They are working intensively on arming the KSF, which they are turning into some kind of Kosovo army according to a 10-year plan. They have very active operational plans for activities and incursions of this formation into northern Kosovo. Their only goal is to try and seize the north of Kosovo by force," Drecun thinks.
