Socialist deputy Ulsi Manja has urged the Kosovo government to distance itself from the participation of Albanians from Kosovo and North Macedonia in the recent protests in Tirana. Speaking following Prime Minister Edi Rama’s comments regarding the protesters, Manja stated that he views the presence of these individuals as an act that will not succeed in overthrowing the current government. Manja addressed the situation, suggesting that if Albin Kurti’s government is not directly involved in the unrest, it should publicly disassociate itself from the protest actions involving the diaspora.
He questioned why the Kosovo government has not taken a clearer stance on the matter. The deputy strongly cautioned against the involvement of Kosovo nationals in the domestic political proceedings. Manja asserted that such participation would not only fail to achieve its stated goal of regime change but would also potentially benefit the adversaries of Kosovo.
The comments highlight internal political tensions regarding the role of the diaspora in Albanian politics. Manja’s remarks call for a clear demarcation between the political actions of the diaspora and the official stance of the Kosovo government. The call emphasizes that for the diaspora’s involvement to be politically neutral, the Kosovo government must issue a formal statement distancing itself from the protests.
