Ksenofon Krisafi served as Albania\u2019s Ambassador to the UN during the period 1998\u20132002.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an interview for KosovaPress, he says that at the time he was in Geneva and, two days later, he had contacted several heads of international organizations. In the meetings he held with them, Krisafi says he noticed that they were treating the genocide in Re\u00e7ak too lightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
