For air pollution and measures to be taken will soon be held an extraordinary conference on Pristina media and municipality, the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
On the other hand, the Government of Kosovo today has formed Inter-ministerial Task Force.
Major concerns have emerged following air quality monitors from the American Embassy, where it turns out that Kosovo -- especially Pristina -- is ranked the most polluted country in the world.
This situation has prompted reactions from institutions to citizens.
Today, Kosovo Parliament Speaker Kadri Veselini has also told the media that he has initiated an extraordinary session in the Kosovo Assembly of the immediate measures to improve the situation.
Meanwhile, it has been called on the social Facebook network to protest to express indignation and frustration at the government and local government for neglect of the current situation.
The protest will be held on January 31, 12: 00 p.m.
Until the situation improves citizens, they are advised to avoid leaving their homes and walking around town in masks.
