Acting President Haxhiu Denies Removal of Albanian Flag from Presidency Office
Tirana – Acting President Albulena Haxhiu has refuted claims that she removed the Albanian flag from the President’s office, a longstanding symbol of the institution. The denial came after a video released by Haxhiu, intended to encourage citizen participation in upcoming voting, featured two Kosovan flags in the background without the presence of the Albanian flag. Responding to journalist inquiries today, Haxhiu stated unequivocally that she did not remove the flag.
She expressed concern over what she described as “false news” circulating regarding the flag’s absence in the video. “This is not true, it is not true,” Haxhiu asserted. “I do not engage in staging or the creation of frames.
Consequently, this report constitutes a false news story, a recurring issue in recent times.”
The incident has sparked debate regarding the presentation of official communications and the handling of imagery associated with the Presidency. Haxhiu’s statement emphasizes her intention to avoid manipulation and dismisses the reports concerning the flag as inaccurate. The situation remains under scrutiny as investigations continue.
