Summary/Abstract: The author, chairperson of the governing AAK Parliamentary Group, calls for an end of dual administration in Kosovo. The UN, having been slow in dealing with Kosovo’s problems, should recognize the interim role that UN Security Council Resolution 1244 has mandated to her. The transfer of competencies in all areas, particularly in the field of justice and internal security, is overdue. In the future, only external security should be secured by the international community. The process of rendering Kosovo independent has to be accelerated. Mrs. Syla also sharply criticizes the ICTY concerning the indictment against Prime Minister Haradinaj, who is considered to be a hero to his people and not guilty of what he is accused for. The indictment is considered to be based on political reasons rather than considerations of justice, namely giving Belgrade an incentive to hand over its indicted war criminals.
