KLA POLITICAL REP SAYS HE IS AGAINST ALL WILLING TO CAPITULATE

PRISTINA, Feb 26 (Hina) - The Kosovo Liberation Army's chief political representative, Adem Demaqi, on Friday spoke to a Pristina-based daily in Albanian about the reasons behind his opposition to the Rambouillet agreement on Kosovo. "I am against all who are willing to capitulate and those who, due to their narrow interests, are willing to sell out general ones," Demaqi told "Kosova Sot". Demaqi's opposition to the Rambouillet agreement was criticised on Thursday by "Koha Ditore", Pristina's highest circulation daily in Albanian. Demaqi asserted some Albanian leaders had given up on a national unification of all Albanians and had agreed to a cultural autonomy of Kosovo, the conflict-ridden province in southern Yugoslavia. He in particular criticised Kosovo Albanian leader Ibrahim Rugova, claiming Rugova had always been ready to capitulate. Demaqi asserted the international community was trying to sell Albanians a fake autonomy which, he believes, will only lead to further bloodshed and Albanian slavery. He vehemently attacked "Koha Ditore", claiming the daily had been put to serve the realisation of the Contact Group's draft plan for Kosovo. (hina) ha jn
