Regon Hoti: AKP property being donated to Serb municipalities is constitutional violation

He, through the social network Faceook, has accused the Government of Kosovo that it is wrong to donate them, as well as to violate Kosovo's Constitution and citizenship.

Hoti wrote:

The government decided on November 6th 2018 to donate the three Serb majority municipalities -- Northern Mitrovica, Ranilug and Klokoti -- AKP properties that are located in those municipalities. These include assets of social enterprises and agricultural land that must be privatised.

The legal basis on which this decision is made is unclear. This is one of the biggest mistakes this Government has made. A few days ago, the mayor of northern Mitrovica said there would be no privatisation in that municipality. With the touching of the legal and constitutional infrastructure of the property privatisation process, Kosovo's constitution and citizenship are being violated.

In the market economy that Kosovo is building, it is unclear what the municipalities need agricultural land and commercial companies that should operate in the private sector with productivity and efficiency under the terms of open competition.

Likely, some of these properties have already been privatised and private investors will now have to be compensated. This approach made all those who privatised property in Kosovo uncertain in their investments for commercial purposes.

This decision is discriminatory as much as administrative instruction of the Ministry of Agriculture, with which the Haradinaj government covers 90% of farmers' investment in municipalities in northern Kosovo, until in other predominantly Albanian municipalities only 50%.

No one has the right to interfere with the work and independence of independent institutions that report to the Parliament. ”
