Political parties, unions, fan groups. Extraordinary mobilization has been seen in connection with the protest which will be held on Thursday from 17:00 PM against the injustices by the Special Court.

The protest was organized by the War Veterans Organization, and was supported by a large part of society.

PDK Chairman Memli Krasniqi has given his support on behalf of the party he leads.

"The Democratic Party of Kosovo has been and will always remain in support of the struggle for freedom and the right to a fair, impartial and speedy trial for our liberators. In this spirit, we support the protest called by the organizations that emerged from the KLA war, as a democratic expression of civic stance, but also as a conviction for the innocence of the accused. I invite all citizens who believe in the justice of our struggle for freedom, in the dignity and future of the Republic of Kosovo, to join this protest on August 7, at 17:00 PM, at "Skënderbeg" Square. With the liberators. For justice," Krasniqi wrote on social networks.

The Alliance for the Future of Kosovo has also provided support.

"In support of the protest called by the organizations that emerged from the KLA war, in their legitimate and just demands. We always stand by the right to war, the right of the fighters and the right of the people. These are the foundations on which our freedom is built and which never waver," wrote Ramush Haradinaj.

Similarly, as well as Nisma with Fatmir Limaj.

"On my behalf and that of NISMA Social-Democratic, we express our full support for the protest organized by the categories that emerged from the war! NISMA Social-Democratic stands strongly in support of this protest, standing shoulder to shoulder with the organizations that represent those who contributed to the liberation war of the Kosovo Liberation Army. We believe that justice is on our side and that the KLA's war was pure, liberating and deeply just. NISMA will always be in support of efforts aimed at preserving the values of the war, as well as the dignity of all those who contributed to the freedom and independence of the Republic of Kosovo," Limaj wrote.

So far, there has been no support from Vetëvendosje or the Democratic League of Kosovo.

The official Kosovo national team fan group, the Dardans, has provided support for the protest.

We invite every member of the Dardans to be part of this protest, in order to convey a clear message that we stand alongside the people who chose the freedom of the country as the only alternative," the post says.

The great interest of citizens, expressed through social networks and many other forms, is evidence of high civic awareness and commitment to justice. We thank all political parties that have publicly supported our protest, members of civil society who have become the voice of reason, and the media for the honest and balanced space they are giving to this call.
