Congress, US Senate, White House,
UN Missions, UN Secretary General August 24, 2005 Your Excellency, The recent visit to Montenegro and Kosovo ( The
Serbian Province of Kosovo and Metohija, under the occupation by the NATO forces
and under the nominal administration by the UN civilian authorities-UNMIK, and
policed by the international police force since June 1999.) by Swiss Foreign
Minister Ms. Micheline Calmy-Rey got a broad attention of the media in Europe
and USA and stirred many debates over Internet, as well. What surprised, disappointed and even shocked most of
the recipients of the news was a blatant and aggressive tone used by this chief
Swiss diplomat in support of the illegitimate aspirations for independence
pushed by some extremist forces in these regions. The myth of the traditional
Swiss neutrality has thus been dispelled, though not for the first time since
the onset of the Kosovo crises in the nineties, which is now reaching its
dramatic climax. As a freelance journalist, I have been closely
watching the tragic developments in Kosovo since 1997, and have been there many
times since. The devastating consequences of the foreign intervention in the
region of the nineties, primarily by the US, Germany and Great Britain, have
brought about a tremendous suffering to its unfortunate population, the
non-Albanians in the first place. By taking side with the Kosovo Albanian
insurgents, terrorists, convicted criminals and drug pushers, the Swiss
government helped exacerbated the plight of the Serbs, Gypsies and other ethnic
minorities persecuted-killed, abducted, tortured, robbed, chased from their
homes - by these Albanians. It has been widely publicized of the refuge the
Swiss government offered to many Kosovo Albanian hardcore criminals, fugitives
from justice, such as Hashim Thachi from the "wanted" Interpol list. He has
enjoyed all the privileges of a Swiss citizen and studied on University of
Zurich, under the police protection, while running his clandestine drug and
weapons trade and working closely with the Western intelligence operatives on
coordinating the KLA gang terrorist activities in Kosovo, also fully supported
by some NATO governments. Assuming that foreign ministers are not freelancers
but legitimate envoys of their respective governments while visiting foreign
countries, then the position took by Ms. Micheline Calmy-Rey, in capacity of the
Swiss top diplomat, on Kosovo independence reflected the stand of Swiss
governments on this issue. At this point I would ask your government if it is
aware of the human catastrophe and disastrous political consequences its
abetting of the Kosovo Albanian independence would lead to. Do you, and your
government, know of 250,000 Serbs, Gypsies, Turks, Slav Muslims, Egyptians and
other non-Albanian minorities expelled from Kosovo by the violent KLA gangs
since the NATO forces arrived in June 1999 and the UN administration, UNMIK,
took the charge of the Province. Do you know of 1,500 Serbs and Gypsies abducted
by Albanian terrorists, before and after June 1999, some of the victims lately
found and identified in mass graves in Kosovo, the others still missing. Have
you heard of over 150 Serbian Orthodox churches and monasteries, some seven
centuries old, desecrated and blown up by Albanians since the NATO "liberation" of Kosovo in June 1999, the
thirty in two days of the Albanian riots of March 2004 alone. Do you, your
Excellency, also know of the thousands of Serbian and other non-Albanian homes
and other property torched or seized by the Albanians in Kosovo in the past six years. And this
abhorrent activity is still ongoing in the clear view of the present NATO, UMNIK
and international police authorities. Your country, commonly viewed as a cradle
of justice, democracy and freedom for all, a hospitable and safe haven for the
persecuted, a neutral, impartial judge on all international matters, the country
highly respected for its humanitarian endeavors worldwide and highly praised for
its renown neutrality in the world affairs, has its government assume a role of
an unsolicited meddler in sensitive affairs of another country, this time Serbia
and its Province of Kosovo and Metohia. I believe the involvement of Switzerland in the
recent wars in the Balkans, in particular its open siding with and supporting
the Albanian insurgents in Kosovo, the infamous KLA terrorist army, was a tragic
mistake that smeared its shiny image of a role-model society, unique in Europe
and the world, as well. I have visited Switzerland
several times since the onset of war in Yugoslavia in 1992 and noticed how
lenient and forgiving the Swiss legal system was towards the
crimes committed by the Kosovo Albanian fugitives and
“refugees”, welcomed with red carpet by the authorities. On the contrary, the
Serbian refugees and even visitors to the friends and families in Switzerland
were not permitted entries. My Serbian friend from Zurich, terminally ill, died
three years ago while waiting for his sister in Belgrade to get Swiss entry
visa. The official irrational hostility towards Serbia and its people has
extended to these days, as demonstrated by position your government takes on
Kosovo. Does your government represent the voices of its people and executes
their will, as expected, or is complying with the demands of the NATO governments to support their
imperialist agenda in the Balkans. Enclosed you will find a copy of an interview the
Swissinfo agency conducted with a Geneva based professor of international
policy, Mr. Andre Liebich, on the recent visit of Swiss Foreign Minister, Ms.
Micheline Calmy-Rey to Montenegro and Kosovo, along with a few relevant copies
on the Kosovo independence subject. Also, a four-footage CD-VHS video and
CD-still photo documentaries, covering the 1998-2004 period of Kosovo drama, is
enclosed. My own video and photo DOC-collection from Kosovo can be made
available upon request. On my many fact finding trips to Kosovo since 1999 I
have seen much of the above documented and experienced some of it myself. I will
bring two incidents. In November 1998 my driver, a Serb from Belgrade, was
abducted near town of Podujevo, Kosovo by KLA commandos, and has never been
heard of since. Being an American citizen I was let go. In May 2004 I was
attacked by an Albanian mob in the city of Kosovska Mitrovica when asked for
direction in Serbian, since the attackers did not speak English, German and
French, I tried in that order( I do not speak Albanian). Fortunately, a French
KFOR patrol in a jeep passed by and saved my life. I would appreciate if you, Your Excellency, read this
letter and reviewed the enclosed material, then pass it to Ms. Micheline Calmy-Rey, to get a
glimpse into the reality of Kosovo. You may not know how the Albanian "freedom
fighters", Swiss government supports, "struggle" for their seat at the table of
European nations. Next time in KosovoI Ms. Calmy-Rey, or any Swiss official, may
try a simple test of maturity for the Kosovo Albanians to be independent and
become a member of the European community: to stop a passer-by anywhere in
Kosovo and ask for time, or direction, in Serbian( not recommended without the
escort of armed body guards!). Thanking you for the time you will spend on reading
this letter and reviewing the enclosed material, Respectfully yours,
