Kosovo figures as part of Serbia in Albanian textbooks, Besa Sahini declared

Albania's Education Minister Besa Sahini has been declared in connection with the scandal where in Albania's textbooks, Kosovo is presented as part of Serbia.

Sahin through a Facebook post said that the mistake made on this page of the book is unintentional and is not even the only one.

On the other hand, Sahin has indicated that the obligation for publishing houses will be put in motion to address immediately with supplementing pages the reported errors, Periscope follows.

Full Sahin mailing:

I was sorry to see the social networking site a page of an inaccurate book on the map of the Balkan region.

Kosovo is the Republic and is recognised as such by Albania, Northern Macedonia, Montenegro, 23 EU member states, the US and many other allied states. But from the author of the book, to the graphic artist, to the editor of the publishing house to the commission that has given OK for publication, they have not been able to observe Kosovo's absence of state in it!

This is, of course, an unintentional mistake and is not the only one, although huge improvements have been made in correcting textbooks. But there should not be any such inaccuracies in school books!

The good news is that this has happened as the process of controlling textbooks has been under way, as this year the process of drafting new books has been completed. Then the obligation will be put in motion for publishing houses to address immediately with complementary sheets of errors filed, while continuing with full editing.
