The Association of Kosovo Journalists (AGK) has expressed its deep concern over the decision of the management of the Public Broadcaster, RTK, to not extend the employment contracts of two journalists, Hana Marteti and Edina Avdiu.
The AGK considers that the discontinuation of their engagement at RTK is directly related to their professional work and unwillingness to submit to pressure and make compromises in professional reporting, the AGK's response states.
"The termination of contracts without performance evaluation has all the hallmarks of a pre-planned and vindictive decision against journalists, including the fact that management was aware of Ms. Avdiu's pregnancy. This is a harmful practice that undermines public trust in RTK," the reaction continues.
"AGK expresses full solidarity with colleagues Marteti and Avdiu, and will provide them with legal assistance to challenge this decision," the reaction concludes.
