Kosovo's historic capital stirs controversy, tide in Parliament

In the vote on this proposal, 47 deputies backed Hasan's proposal, 7 rejected it, while another 10 abstained.

Similarly, Hasan in his reasoning said Prizren has played a major role in Kosovo's history and has had the status of the capital in previous historical periods.

But his PDK colleague, Bekim Jahu, rejected Hasani's idea.

He proposed that the historical capital “ ” by law should be given Precazin.

“Let's put the law in service of history and not make history with the laws”, Haxhi said.

After that, the Speaker of the Parliament, Kadri Wessel, intervened in the debate.

This enters the field of creativity”, Wessel said in a joke.

The next word was received by Prizren MP Zafir Berisha from NISMA.

I've requested that Prizre be the capital, not just historical... Prizren, by law or without law, is the spiritual capital of Albanians”, Berisha said.

The proposal rejected AAK's Muharrem Nitaj.

Don't play with historical capitals. If the PZ is the historic capital, we cannot put it into this law because it is unconstitutional”, Nitaj said.

Even PDK Parliamentary Group Chairman Memli Krasniqi voiced doubts about the proposal.

I'm not sure he belongs here, but if we agree to include him, we vote. We could have treated Prizren with special law”, Krasniqi said.

Ismet Beqiri rejected this proposal.

“If the bill speaks to Pristina, for the Kosovo capital, there is no contest in any circumstances, even the assessment that Prizren is the historic capital. But this relationship amendment does not have”, Beqiri said, writes callo. com

The proposal for Prizren was supported, meanwhile, by Vetevendosje's Rexhep Selimi.

“We are more concerned than when the Prizren Historical Centre was. I'm proposing that we vote and I declare my vote. I'm asking you to vote. Prizren deserves to be named by law as the historic capital of Albanians”, Selimi said.
