On the Day of Violently Disappeared Persons, a commemorative gathering was held in Mejë organized by the Office of the Prime Minister of Kosovo, the Governmental Commission for Missing Persons, the Coordinating Council of the Association of Family Members of the Missing Persons of Kosovo and the "April 27, 1999 Mejë" Association. Prime Minister Albin Kurti, President Vjosa Osmani and the Deputy Speaker of the Assembly, Saranda Bogujevci, placed bouquets of flowers in memory of Mother Easter and paid tribute to the memorial erected in memory of those killed in the massacre in Meja. In memory of the massacre in Meja and all the people who disappeared during the war, Prime Minister Kurti said that Serbia continues to deny and hide the crimes committed against Albanians in Kosovo.

"Although the armed and bloody war in Kosovo ended in June 1999, the war for the war in Kosovo has never ended and it continues today. On the one hand, there is autocratic Serbia that tries to hide and deny the crimes it committed in Kosovo, avoiding responsibility for them. And on the other side is democratic Kosovo, which with its society and state tells the truth about the war in Kosovo, from the places where the crimes were committed during the war like Meja and up to the highest international instances, like the Organization of Nations United," Kurti said. In the history of the Kosovo war, the prime minister emphasized that the massacre committed in Meja and Korenica on April 27, 1999, is the biggest.

"That day, 376 unarmed and innocent Albanian civilians were killed in these villages of Gjakova. Among them, 11 students and 20 teachers. Albanians were killed regardless of age, gender, origin, or religion. Here we have together the graves of Muslims and Catholics killed just because they were Albanians", he said. Kurti spoke about the special struggle of the state of Serbia to appropriate, impose and dominate the narratives about the Kosovo war. Faced with these deceitful tricks of Serbia, the prime minister stressed that Kosovo fights in its right against Serbia's propaganda, in battles for the historical truth of Kosovo's war and for bringing it to justice.

"Just as we won the war in 1999, with the relentless efforts of our people, with the glorious battles of the Kosovo Liberation Army, with the blood of the martyrs and martyrs of the nation and with the support of our allies, we will also win the war for the Kosovo war, with the historical truth, with justice for the crimes committed during the war, all of us together, the state and the people of Kosovo, with friends and allies as well as with our common democratic and western values", said Kurti.
