Meta hints he'd decree Veton Surroi instead of Gent Cakati

Republika President Ilir Meta has rejected all rumours claiming that his refusal to sign Rama's proposal for the appointment of Gent Cakaj to the foreign minister's post concerned the fact that his origin from Kosovo.

According to Meta, whoever claims this sucks, not even sparing the irony when he added that “I did not reject Veton Surroi, I did not even reject Hasan Pristina”, the president said during the interview given to journalist Bleevziu.

PJ E SUCH FROM INTERVIAS

Journalist: .... No personal prejudice against Mr. Cakaj?

President Meta: No prejudice, but certainly when I notice that this deputy minister for six months refuses to meet a legal obligation, it does not seem normal, I don't think it's a high sense of responsibility.
Journalist: Is there a prejudice because he comes from Kosovo?

President Meta: Zero, but I didn't reject Veton Surro, I didn't even refuse Hasan Pristina, I'm sorry, and not only that, but I told the prime minister at the preliminary meeting, that I wanted to avoid this debate. I told him that if you have such a high assessment, because he had very high regard for it, make it the Minister of Culture, make another minister...

Journalist: .... And you were about to decree it in another position?

President Meta: Yes, of course, because for me another post is not of such risk as it might be in the foreign minister's post, because an foreign minister can launch a firm and a state could end up in court for decades, sir. And then the president would blame them, say he decreed it, we have no responsibility. The president would leave the responsibility again.
