Kosovo’s biggest opposition party, PDK, has called on Prime Minister Albin Kurti to dismiss Foreign Minister and Diaspora, Donika Gervalla for as they say, insulting the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) and war victims.

MP representing the PDK, Abelard Tahiri, addressing media after Parliament session on Thursday said they cannot allow the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kosovo applies the same narration as Serbian authorities. Tahiri urged PM Kurti to dismiss her as soon as possible.

The PDK’s reaction came after media republished a statement of Gervalla who in 2017 stated that she would send materials to the Kosovo Specialist Chambers (KSC) on alleged crimes of certain individuals within the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA).

Reporting before MPs on Thursday Gervalla has denied any cooperation with the KSC and reiterated that The Hague based court was established by the PDK and its allies. Her statements in the Assembly prompted reaction of the PDK MPs who interrupted the session after a intense debate with the ruling MPs of Vetevendosje. /GazetaExpress/
