Address of the President Xhaferi on the Occasion of September 8 – Independence Day

Welcome at the celebration of this exceptionally important historic day. I am honored to host this event today, as in fact the custom implies, since it was here, in the legislature, in the House of Citizens, exactly twenty-eight years ago, that our colleagues from that parliamentary composition put the citizens' decision on paper and brought it to life. It was a decision arising from the referendum held on September 8, 1991 when the centuries-long dream, the centuries-long desire for a free, independent, sovereign state came true as citizens opted for such an independent, sovereign state whose fundamental postulates for the development of civil society were incorporated in the highest legislative act - the country's constitution.
